Kokkari village in Samos is beautiful

The beautiful fishing village Kokkari is 10 km away from Vathi, the island’s capital. You can stroll around picturesque alleys and visit the traditional cafes, however the two crystal clear beaches, one at each side of the peninsula, will steal your heart.
If you want to taste the delicious Muscat, the finest and most popular wine of the island, plan a visit to a local winery. Try also the signature Ouzo of Samos along with salty Katimeria, a traditional tasty side dish.

If you are lucky enough, near Glyfada lake or Alyki habitat, you will see herons, Dalmatian pelicans and pink flamingos from a very close distance. For a unique experience, rent a small boat from Pythagorio harbor and visit Samiopoula, a virgin islet to spend your day in the sandy beach, snorkeling in the emerald waters.
