Pythagorio and its picturesque harbor are home to many yachts and sailing boats. The beautiful, topaz blue waters of the Aegean sparkle in the midday sun. From here it is possible to travel by boat to several other Aegean islands.
The town is named after the famous ancient Greek Mathematician and Philosopher Pythagoras and is a very popular destination, as it has many architectural sites of interest, as well as a stunning beach that boasts pristine white sands that stretch down to the clear blue waters of the Aegean. Soak up the history and ancient culture of Samos in this beautiful town.
Pythagorio contains many great architectural works of the period, such as the great aqueduct (part of it is the Tunnel of Eupalinos), temple of Heraion, and Samos harbor. The city was originally called Tigani, based on the Italian word "Dogana" which means "customs", but it'the name was changed in 1955 to Pythagorio after the famous Greek Mathematician and Philosopher.
