kokkari village view II, a photo from Samos, North Aegean

Photographer's Note

kokkari village view II
The village Kokkari is a bathing and major tourist resort in the north of the island Samos, not far from the capital Vathi or Samos city. Here are also quite some hotels in a pleasant environment. People who have been there speak generally positive about this village. The village has a long and pleasant pebblebeach and many restaurants, super markets and tourist shops. Because the village lies on the north side of the island there is however often some wind, and for this reason it is also popular with the windsurfers. On the beach of Kokkari there are quite a few number of taverna's and also a couple of internet cafes. In the neighbourhood of Kokkari there are several other (but smaller) beaches. In Kokkari there is everything that a tourist could want including car rentals and banks. The church in kokkari is large and interesting.

Samos, Kokkari
Kokkari has just over 1000 inhabitants and it is the main tourist resort in the north of the island of Samos. It is slightly more quiet than in for instance Pythagorion. Not far and within walking distance of the long pebble beach of the village there are some other nice beaches, including Lemonakia Beach and Tsamadou (part naturist beach). In the vicinity of the village are several hiking trails through nature that will lead you to nearby mountain villages. The accommodations in Kokkari consist mostly of pensions and small hotels and apartment complexes. Kokkari has many cafes and restaurants around the bay along the beach and also in the street behind the beach you can find something to eat or buy your souvenirs. Here are also a couple of small supermarkets and a couple of jewelry shops

Κωνσταντίνε καλημέρα,
όμορφο το Καλοκαιρινό σκηνικό από το Κοκκάρι με τις κόκκινες καρέκλες του εστιατορίου να κάνει το τέλειο κοντραστ με το μπλε της θάλασσας.Το ύψωμα στο βάθος συμπληρώνει το ελκυστικό σκηνικό.

Καλό Σαββατοκύριακο,Δάνος

Bonjour Costantino,

Je crois bien que je choisirais la table à l'avant plan, Le plus près possible de l'eau pour la chaleur, le vent et l'odeur de la mer. J'aime les teintes de l'eau ainsi que le beau paysage urbain sur l'autre rive.

Amicalement

Serge

Hello Costantino,
A lovely view over the very blue water towards the village and the hill on the other side. The tables and especially the red chairs are nicely added to the foreground, they form a great colour contrast.

Kalimera Costantino,
A most attractive place to sit and have a cap of coffe, while watching the blue bay and the other side small hill and the surrounding.
The red wooden chairs added nice contrast with blue.
Cheers and a nice Sunday,
Ike

Hello dear Constantino,

Samos is an island I want very much to see, since it was the home of Pythagoras and Aristarchus. More than that, however, I would like to sit at one of those tables and order a slice of watermelon, feta cheese and fresh bread. This is an inviting scene,

Warm regards,

Bulent

Hola Contantino

Great Mediterranean composition
Waiting red chairs contrasting well with the blue of the sea
Quite an attractive place to rest and enjoy sun and sea ambiance

Maria

Καλησπέρα Κωνσταντίνε,
ωραίος ο συνδυασμός των φιλόξενων τραπεζιών στο πρώτο πλάνο και της γραφικής θέας στην απέναντι ακτή. Μου αρέσει πολύ ο τρόπος που τα ενδιαφέροντα, χρωματιστά στοιχεία της ακτής πλαισιώνουν την τόσο ελκυστική τυρκουάζ θάλασσα. Το έντονο και διαυγές φως κάνει την ατμόσφαιρα πάρα πολύ ευχάριστη. Συγχαρητήρια και ευχαριστώ!
Να είσαι καλά, καλό σου βράδυ,
Ουρανία

Hello Costantino,
This looks like a great spot to have dinner. I'm sure the food is good, too. :-) I really like the color of the water, and also the bright, red chairs. The small hill in the distance is charming, too.

Hi Costantino,
beautiful sight and a lovely composition. The chairs and tables make a nice foreground while the little islet in the distance is so photogenic.
Great colors, there is so much light in there.
Excellent eye catching result,
