On far-off Greek island Samos, in the Eastern Aegean Sea near Turkey, you feel removed from the rest of the world in all the best ways. Whitewashed villas with sounds and views of the sea await you – or how about a holiday flat overlooking a bustling, charming pedestrian mall?
Eat and drink in the island life
Right on Potami Beach, near port town Karlovasi and the Potami Waterfalls, Cafe Del Mundo is what beach cafe dreams are made of. Amidst woodsy, tiki decor, soak up sunsets and live music to the taste of classic Greek pita wraps and island-style coffee, the favourite frappé.
In the wavy, turquoise cove by Kokkari village, Rosmarino restaurant with its wide deck and million-dollar views beckons. Ooh and ah at paradise-like waters and landscapes as you bite into real Greek salad with feta cheese followed by freshly caught mahi-mahi.
Ancient relics
Samos island is a place of many valuable remnants of ancient Greek architecture, engineering, and philosophy. Also near Pythagoreio, the remarkable Tunnel of Eupalinos was constructed as an aqueduct way back in the 6th century B.C.
A main archaeological draw for visitors, the ghostly Heraion of Samos ruins are a sprawling monument for goddess Hera from the 8th century B.C. Now a UNESCO site, intricate carvings and details are still prominently visible on historic white stones.
Towns with character
Pythagoreio, named after the ancient mathematician who created the tricky Pythagorean Theorem, is a resort town where you discover your zen just as easily as you shop 'til you drop or enjoy fine dining. Watch the sunset on a quiet pebble beach after a day of exploring curious side streets.
In port city Samos, boat-watchers delight in ferries coming and going from the docks, framed by the stunning backdrop of forested hills. After admiring dramatic views, take a stroll along sometimes steep lanes farther inland where life has a slower pace.
