Kalyves has the White Mountains as a background and is crossed by the river Xydas. The town today has 1,400 inhabitants. It is said that the Kalyves took their name from the makeshift accommodation (huts) built by the Arab pirates, when they invaded in 828 and occupied the Sarakines area near the village.
