Samos, Greece
Potami Beach

A well-kept secret of the Greeks, visit Potami Beach to find out why.

Located in the northeastern coast of Samos is the gorgeous pebble beach of Potami. Be mesmerised by the sapphire blue Aegean Sea, which is surrounded by stunning cliffs with tall pine trees. Admire the shiny smooth pebbles that cover a large part of the beach, soak in some Greek sunshine on a sun lounger or bring your own sundeck chair. Stay around for the sunset, and watch as the sun sinks in the horizon, casting the surroundings with a mesmerising hue of pink and golden.


Go on a hike of about 2km through an enchanting forest, which will lead you to a beautiful lake. Head a little further and be astounded by the sight of the stunning Potami waterfalls pouring into a narrow canyon. If you stray from the path and head towards the back of Potami Beach, you will find the Genoan Castle sitting atop a low hill, accompanied by the oldest church in Samos a distance away. Dine in a taverna and savour delectable Greek cuisine, paired with the finest locally produced wine for the perfect experience as you indulge in the magnificent beauty of Potami Beach.
