Kokkari Village Samos Greece
On the Northern part of Samos Island and only 10 km distance from Samos town you will find Kokkari village. This unique village is build in an authentic Mediterranean style capturing elements from the Middle East. In essence from 400 years of Turkish influence. As a result this architecture is what make the village unique and beautiful. In 2017 Kokkari Village Samos Greece was voted as the best hidden Gem in Europe. Read more on Europes best destination catalogue.
Besides its architecture, the village combines a mountain view and a sea view. Geographically speaking the village is located between two protective headlands and the landscape forms the most picturesque gulf of the whole island.
First on the mountain you will feel at peace. Just relax and you’ll enjoy the interesting forest footpaths, the sweet smells of wild flowers, the spring’s freshness and the birds’ singing. From up high, the houses of the village look like small white doves embraced by thousands of trees. The view is breathtaking.
Next the coastal street is more alive and you’ll find friendly hotel owners, traditional tavernas, local restaurants and entertainment.
Finally allow me to say that, the sea will charm and captivate you. Pebbles lie next to the sea forming the most beautiful beaches of the island.
In and around our village you will find the following beaches:
- Small Lemonakia situated next to our hotel 2 minutes walking distance).
- Tarsanas or long beach ( this beach stretches’ throughout the village)
- Lemonakia beach 1.5 kms from Poseidon
- Tsamadou beach 2 kms from Poseidon
- Avlakia and Tsabou beaches 4 kms from Poseidon
- Kedros beach 4 kms from Poseidon ( walking towards Samos town)
Kokkari Village Samos Greece
In addition to the above in Kokkari there are around 500 habitants. All of them are jovial and good-hearted people. Moreover they accept visitors with pleasure, always willing to offer them their hospitality so they can become members of the Kokkari family.
As a result, I don’t know any other villages as beautiful, quiet and relaxed as mine. Again the best way to feel the Mediterranean atmosphere is by walking along the harbor or sipping a favorite drink on one of the terraces with a view of sea. Everything around this landscape is made of color and light!
Perhaps my love for this village is also what makes it so beautiful.
