Samos was always famus for the black pinne forests, this wood was very good quality for the old shipyards. Today we just try to protect them from burning in the summer months....

On the top you can see the city of Karlovasi.

Potami beach - Karlovasi II

In addition to my previus photo, I think this one fits very well too. It is just the other side (west) of the same beach, the beach of Potami in Karlovassi Samos.
I like very much this clear and fresh blue watter!!

Potami beach - Karlovasi

There are few tourists left on the island,the weather still sunny and relative warm. The potami beach in Karlovasi become lonely,the nature needs also time to rest.
