Discover the Jewel of the Aegean
Gorgeous beaches, a vibrant blue sea and sun-baked landscape: There's no denying it, the Greek islands are just incredibly beautiful! But only too often, one ends up sharing the beach with hundreds of other people, the noise of the breeze & the waves replaced by shouts & somebody else's music.

But not every Greek island is like that... On Samos, you will find unspoiled Aegean beauty, peace & quiet. Moreover, as well as having beautiful beaches, there are also plenty of things to do if you love nature & history! Unusually among Greek islands, Samos is very green. The island's mountainous interior offers a wealth of lovely trails to explore!

History buffs will also be in their element: After all, Samos is home to the ancient sanctuary of Hera, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Tunnel of Eupalinus, an impressive ancient aquaduct will have you snapping photo after photo! And then there is the Cave of Pythagoras - yes, that Cave of Pythagoras: The famous mathematician lived & studied there. It is also an incredibly photogenic spot with stunning views.

While exploring, you will find picturesque small towns & villages dotted all over the island. Samos is well-known for its hospitality. Those who like to take the time to get to know a place & its people will find a friendly welcome here.
