vathy-samos Samos…land distinct, land unique…A uniqueness that justifies the distinctness in life, in history, in spirit, in art… The blessing of the goddess Hera, the spirit of Pythagoras and Aristarchus, the power of Polycrates, the environment, the nature, the treasures, the customs…all of them give birth to this uniqueness… In Samos island you see, you feel, you experience the spirit. Even today… Here people are simple, hospitable, kind-hearted, genuine islanders. They preserve their manners, customs and traditions. They continue to cultivate vines and to produce the famous samian sweet wine, that is distinguished for its taste, colour and aroma. They make alcoholic drinks with a strong taste, such as ouzo. They still gather aromatic plants. They produce top quality honey. They manufacture traditional wooden boats from samian pine. They work in pottery and ceramics…and from olive pits, the produce natural green olive soap. So, holiday in Samos is definitely a unique experience…
