The beach at Tsampou is located off the road leading to Karlovassi, about 15 km from the island’s capital, and in the region known as ‘Avlaki’.  The seashore, surrounded by lush vegetation, of white pebbles gives it a unique distinction from the other beaches, when combined with the deep, clear waters and large waves (on a windy day), gives you an experience you won’t soon forget! 

Adequate facilities and services are available at Tsampou Beach.  Like many of the other spots, this beach is also the perfect escape from the everyday ‘rat-race’ of city life.        

This pebble beach, with her clear and restless waters, sits near the village of Kokkari; just follow the road that leads to Karlovasi and you’ll run into Tsamadou.  From the paved road, follow a small footpath that ends at water’s edge.  The beach’s shoreline is somewhat small, but is well-maintained and furnished with umbrellas, lounge chairs and outdoor showers. 

Tsamadou Beach’s “claim to fame” is that it is the only spot on the island exclusively for nudists.  If you are a follower and an enthusiast of nudist beaches, then this is the ideal place for you.  Also, in the immediate area around Tsamadou, you’ll have access to facilities as well as a kiosk shop.               

The beach at Mykali is situated on the southeast end of the island, just a few kilometers from the capital, and is an ideal option for anyone not looking to venture too far from the center of things.  It is an expansive, pebble-sand beach with crystal-clear waters, offering enough comforts, including free umbrellas and lounge chairs, as well as water and beachside sports, such as volleyball and paddle ball. 

You can also choose among the many small tavernas and cantinas along the beach; you need not worry about your stay here, as Mykali Beach and the adjacent area offers accommodations and amenities of every kind.    

        

Among the most beautiful shorelines of Samos is Potokaki, which can be found near Pythagoras.  Its 3 km stretch of pebble-sand beach invites you to take a swim in the deep-blue waters of the Aegean.  Potokaki Beach is well-maintained and brings with it the guarantee of the Blue Flag, and the surrounding area has developed into a popular tourist destination, with all the amenities to make for a comfortable, need-free stay. 

A variety of water sports is offered, including jet skiing and water bicycling; you can also make use of the many small boats to check out the neighboring coastline.  Located next to the island’s lone airport, Potokaki also offers beachgoers a bird’s eye view of the airplanes flying in and out. 

Given its size, location and beauty, this beach stands out among the rest, as displayed by the thousands of tourists who flock here every summer.  One can access Potokaki Beach from many different points around the island, and if you go by car, you’ll have no problem finding parking.
