Kalo Nero is a quiet coastal settlement on the southern coast of the Lasithi prefecture, east of Makry Gialos.

The area is characterized by its wild natural beauty, combining the rocky Cretan landscape with the peaceful coves of the Libyan Sea.

The most noteworthy feature to see in Kalo Nero is the diversity of its shores. The settlement features beautiful beaches such as Anaskelou and Lygidi, while to the west lie the Ammoudi beaches, also known as "Dragon's Cave". The region also offers unique opportunities for nature lovers, as the Perivolakia Gorge and the Moni Kapsa monastery are located nearby, serving as significant landmarks of southeastern Crete.

A tour of Kalo Nero reveals a place ideal for those seeking isolation and contact with the pristine environment. The settlement is accessible via the road leading towards Perivolakia and the monastery, while the site Pigi Zoodochou within the village adds an element of local tradition. The panoramic views of the Kalo Nero bay and the area's tranquility make Kalo Nero a hidden gem of Lasithi.
