There are different possibilities to be mobile on the island.
You got experience in driving a scooter/motorbike? Then I can recommend to rent a scooter.
It’s the best option to discover the island, you feel free, smell Kalymnos thyme everywhere and it’s extremely easy to park!
If you don’t feel comfortable with driving a scooter, an ATV or a car could be a better option for you.
There are many rental places from Pothia to Massouri.
- Roads are used and can be very slippery, but also cats and goats are crossing the streets anytime.
- You will see many people without helmet on the scooter. Don't do the same! First, it's dangerous and second, the police is very strict, you could get a fine! Wear at least your climbing helmet!

Also please have in mind that not everybody on the island is on vacation. People are on the way to work and have obligations. Please don't drive too slowly in the middle of the road and don't park where you shouldn't.
Take care and respect road signs!
