Beach overall scores
Megalo Seitani (Northern Aegean) is located outside the Drakei settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Samos island and the correct question is not how to get to Megalo Seitani, but what mode of transport can be used to get to it, because this part of the coast is inaccessible by land. The beach can only be reached by water and you have to rent a boat to get there.
User reviews
"The beach is a stunning expanse of sand that stretches out for miles. Although it can get quite busy, there's plenty of space to lay out and soak up the sun. To get there, you'll need to take a winding path through the mountains, but the journey is well worth it. Alternatively, you can hitch a ride with one of the locals who operate boat trips to the beach. One thing to keep..."
