Samiopoula Island Boat Cruise
The placid and azure waters off southwest Samos offer some of the best boating conditions in the entire Aegean. Glide through the sparkling sea as you head to the tiny island of Samiopoula on this full day nautical treat.
Your adventure kicks off as you board your boat at Votsalakia pier. Relax on the sun-drenched deck as you drift past pebbly shores on your way to the tiny island of Samiopoula. This takes about an hour but time goes slowly when you're soaking up the beauty of your surroundings. You might even spot a pod of dolphins – they like these warm waters as much as we do.
Dive off the boat for a swim, take part in water activities hosted by the crew or head out on a dinghy to a beach to explore. You'll also tuck into a tasty homemade lunch onboard.
