    The beach is reached via a path from the roadside Taverner, at the bottom of the path Tsmandou is in front of you. To the far right as you look out to sea is an official clothing optional beach and to the left an everyday beach the beach is pebble with clear water. it is reasonably sheltered when the Meltemi blows. The clothing optional side was busy for a September with Dutch, Belgium’s, Polish and Scandinavians all enjoying the late season sunshine. The taverner was also still in action with the usual Greek Beach food offering and libations. A very pleasant beach for the open minded. If you prefer shallow entry and sand, I can recommend Psilli Amos on the south coast of Samos.

    I think this is the best place for swimming at Samos. It will be better to go earlier because waves starts after noon. Also the restaurant was good and has a large menu for food.

    This is a fantastic place and friendly staff. The food is excellent and they bring drinks to your sunbeds. You can use free bading shoes and diving gear to snorkel with. And its family own place with the "mother" at the place are a fantastic Lady. Go here if you are at Samos.
    Happy holiday// Roger

    The path is graded 1 but only because it is a very popular walk, it is in fact grade 2 or 3 in places. Rocks to climb over and rickety part broken wobbly wooden bridges to cross with no handrails. It is a very scenic walk. The steps, about 75 or more, up to the taverna are very steep and difficult unless you are young and fit! I climbed up them but I wouldn't contemplate climbing back down! There are sturdy rough wooden branch handrails all the way up to hold onto with both hands, very needed! Fortunately there is an easy narrow road back to Potami from the taverna. The best option is to do the waterfalls, then return to car and find narrow concrete road with a taverna sign and then drive to near the taverna. only do the steps up to the taverna if you absolutely have to and have a good head for heights!

    We "hiked" up from Pythagoreio and were rewarded with some fabulous views down to the town and airport. The cave church is fascinating and also seems to be 15c cooler the moment you step inside.

    6 stars!!! This beach is so stunning and beautiful. We started walking from the beach along a dirt road which takes you to a sign and the descent down starts. You can drive up the road and park by the sign to shorten the trip. the descent down might be about 25 mins from the road. We went around 10am and it was empty. It got fairly busy in the afternoon. So so so worth the hike. Must wear sneakers as very rocky and the rocks slide from beneath you. Bring plenty of water and food and rubbish back with you.

    Well organised but no so big. The items are in two floors and you may also visit the outer space and admire the ancient ruins of Pythagorion.

    Clean beach not that far from Karlovasi city. If you are planning to go here during the day take a ride because there is no shadow on the way.
