The Cave at Vathy, Kalymnos

[affinite]

Does anyone know the location of the cave at Vathy on Kalymnos ?

I want to take a look if/when we get there later this year

I know that you can only get to it from the water.

I know Vathy quite well so think I know where it is but Id be interested to hear from anyone who's actually scrambled up to it.

Thanks

A lot of years ago but I doubt that it's moved: There's a cave - I assume that's the one you mean - in the first bight on the starboard side as you're entering Vathi Bay (before you get to the church/monastery on the hill) the cave's in the NE corner. Be careful if you climb there, the rock is, or at least was in my memory, very weak and friable.

Just an update in case someone comes across this thread in the future
The cave is where I thought it was, and as Bob said its on stbd side on way in to Vathy
Its called Daskalio cave, much larger than I imagined it would be and well worth a look (take shoes and a torch) if you have an hour to spare and are OK with scrambling up (poor condition) rock steps
