Question 1

What are the major attractions in Samos?

Accepted Answer

If your trip to Samos is all sorted out but your travel itinerary is a little on the empty side, we can give you a helping hand.

Plan a stop at Samos Monastery. It's one sight you'll find on many travelers' to-do lists. Cipres Chapel and Santa María do Mao are also close by and worth a detour.

Question 2

What are the best road trip destinations near Samos?

Accepted Answer

With some great road trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn't be half as easy to experience all that Monforte de Lemos, 17 miles away, has to offer. See the sights beginning with Pazo de Tor, Torre da Homenaxe do Castelo de Lemos and Castelo de Monforte de Lemos. The locals will also likely point you toward Lugo, 25 miles away. If you can only find time for one attraction here, make sure it's Parque Rosalia de Castro. (But we'd also recommend Lugo Cathedral and Marcelle Natureza.)

Question 3

Where are the best beaches near Samos?

Accepted Answer

Nothing's quite as heavenly as being beside the sea in the early hours of the evening. Take a relaxing road trip to Playa fluvial de Vega de Valcarce and see the sun's rays shimmering on the water before it vanishes into the horizon. You'll find this glorious beach 17 miles from Samos.
