Samos’ Stunning Beaches Earn Global Acclaim

Samos shines among Greece’s top islands for its pristine and breathtaking beaches, with Potami Beach earning special recognition in Travel & Leisure. The American travel outlet describes Potami as “nestled in a lush landscape with inviting Mediterranean blue waters, perfect for ultimate relaxation.” The beach is set to gain even more global attention in 2025, as it receives an official Blue Flag designation, cementing its place on the world tourism stage.

The UK’s Express.co.uk also celebrates Samos, dubbing it a “paradise on earth.” The island, birthplace of the legendary philosopher Pythagoras, boasts historic sites, charming villages, mesmerizing beaches, and nature retreats. The outlet highlights new direct flights from the UK via Jet2, launching in 2026, making Samos more accessible to British travelers.

“We’ve been working strategically since last November in London to boost Samos’ visibility ahead of these new flights,” said Vangelis Marnezos, Deputy Mayor of Tourism for Western Samos. “The enthusiasm from travel giants like Jet2 Holidays shows Samos’ appeal to diverse travelers.”

At ITB Berlin, a leading global tourism fair, Orbitapopular.com spotlighted Samos, praising its unique coastline of pebble and sandy beaches with crystal-clear waters. The platform noted, “Samos, the birthplace of Pythagoras—the pioneer of modern mathematics and music theory—is a hidden gem waiting to be explored.”
