Psili Ammos 2 & Limnionas beach on Samos |
 |
|
The beaches of Psili Ammos 2 and Limnionas are located just east of Votsalakia. Both are nice and well worth a visit. Personally, I prefer Psili Ammos 2 of the two. Distances from Votsalakia: Psili Ammos 2: 3 km, Limnionas: 6 km and Drakei: 20 km.

Psili Ammos 2 is one of three beaches on Samos with the same name: Psili Ammos 1 is located east of Pythagorion and Psili Ammos 3 is located southeast of Balos. The latter is relatively unknown, and I have not been there. Psili Ammos means "fine sand" in Greek, so if you like sandy beaches and see that name on a map, then you know where to go.
Psili Ammos 2 is as child-friendly and shallow as Psili Ammos 1.
Paris Restaurant and Psili Ammos Restaurant are located above the beach.
Personally, I think that Psili Ammos 2 is one of Samos' best beaches. The beach is fairly unexploited and offers fine sand, clear and clean water, it is shallow and very child-friendly. In fact, it is so shallow that you have to walk a long way to get your knees wet. Annoying for an adult perhaps, but ideal for young children. Tavernas can be found above the beach.
Parts of the beach are covered in white sand, which makes the beach look a bit exotic. |

Limnionas, not far from Psili Ammos 2, is a cosy beach with small pebbles. There are beachside tavernas, pensions and water sport facilities and sun beds for rent. From Limnionas, it is not far to Taverna at the End of the World, which is well worth a visit. Do not miss!

ACCOMMODATION IN LIMNIONASThere are no pensions at Psili Ammos 2, but there are in Limnionas. I have not stayed overnight here, but some I know return year after year and they always stay at Studios Limnionas. |
