Kalamata Airport lies west of the city, in Messinia, and is the gateway to the southern Peloponnese. From here you reach the Mani peninsula, the beaches of Costa Navarino, the Venetian castles of Methoni and Koroni and the site of Olympia. It is a seasonal airport, with charter and scheduled flights mainly from April to October.

Getting to town
- Taxi: rank outside the terminal; central Kalamata is about 15 minutes away.
- Hire car: the best way to explore the Mani and Messinia.
- Buses: services are few; check timetables before you travel.
Practical tips
- Documents: EU citizens only need a valid identity card or passport.
- Islands in summer: island airports are small and very crowded on peak days; arrive well ahead of your return flight.
- Domestic flights: Aegean, Olympic and Sky Express link Athens and Thessaloniki with dozens of islands; alternatively there are the ferries.
- Taxis: ask the price before getting in or check that the meter is running; on the islands it is best to book.
