The project of signaling hiking routes on the island was implemented in 2019 by the North Aegean Region.

Climbing

A climbing day next to the sea. In the area of Karlovasi (potami beach) there are 3 climbing sectors with more than 30 available routes to climb. The most of the routes it is on the sade until the early afternoon.

Our first and the most popular choice it is the sector next to the sea, next to the road, ideal for the beginners challenge and for a easy going holiday day for the most experienced climbers.

The routes is less than 12 meters with grades from 5b to 6b

For the most demanding climbers the 2nd climbing sector it is only 10 minutes far away by the footpath with a panoramic view and of course with a good warm up with the 10 min hiking uphill. In this place it is a split of more than 20 routes to climb. the heights is between 55m and 8m with grades from 5b to 7b+

For the very demanding climbers it is also the 3rd climbing place into a Canyon for overhangs climb with a access again 10 minutes by foot.

After the climb we have the ability to continue the trip to the waterfalls for a refreshing waking into the water and an easy climb on the waterfalls for one more hour.

Windsurfing

The areas where the Surf Clubs of the island are located offer the right climatic conditions for windsurfing, due to the high altitude (1,153 meters) of Mount Karvouni, making Samos an ideal destination for fans of the sport.

Horseback riding

Samos offers ideal routes for horseback riding. Organized ranches with qualified professionals and safely introduce the visitor to the world of the sport, combining mountain and coastal routes.

Jet Ski

There is a lot to know before jumping in the Aegean with your jet ski! Stay calm, cool and collective, because like we mentioned before panicking will only make the situation a lot harder.

Go through every one of these points and make yourself familiar, maybe even an expert in how to do everything you can to make a ride as smooth and safe as possible. If you’ve never ridden in the ocean you may also want to consider going on a trip with a tour guide first.

They can typically show you the basics and take you to some areas they are very familiar with.

Fishing trips

During the summer months, experienced fishermen organize day trips with small traditional fishing boats to the small and large Laka, Kasonisi and Samiopoula. The excursion program includes swimming on the pristine beaches of the island, fishing for the initiated or not, but also food on the boat cooked by the hands of the captain.
