Situated at the head of the Messenian Gulf, Kalamata serves as the chief shipping port of the area, including the entire Greek Peloponnese islands of which Kalamata is the second-largest city. Kalamata International Airport (KLX) services this southern Greek city. In fact, the area is only 60 kilometres from Sparta. This incredibly historic city features the 1317 church of Saint Apostles, an Archaeological Museum, the Historical and Folkloric Museum of Kalamata, the 19th century Byzantine Temple of the Visitation of the Saviour, and the Castle of Kalamata that was built in 1208. Budget Zakynthos flights, an alternative airport which land 128 kilometres away in Zakynthos, allow travellers to seek alternative flight options to Kalamata and the surrounding area for the best prices.
