Located on the south-west coast of Samos, Votsalakia is a relaxing friendly resort, popular with couples and families alike. The Samos holiday season runs from April to October, when the temperature can rise from 20° up to the 30`s, ideal for sunbathing on the sandy beach and swimming in the crystal clear water.
The 2km long sandy beach is backed by Mount Kerkis, making this area popular with ramblers, and along the seafront are a number of bars, restaurants and cafes. Here you can enjoy local and international cuisine, sample delicious, freshly caught fish dishes or just relax with a snack and a refreshing drink as the world goes by.
A handful of shops and mini-markets in Votsalakia provide the usual holiday essentials and some good cheap holiday souvenirs, whilst the nightlife in Votsalakia is a relatively low key affair with a number of bars offering a friendly atmosphere in the evening.
Above Votsalakia is the Evangelistria Monastery, giving you spectacular views, though if you continue to the top of Mount Kerkis the views are even better.
