37° 45.3′ N · 26° 35.5′ E
A remote bay on Samos's NW tip, linked to the rest of the island only by sea until 1965, home to what is described as the oldest active traditional wooden-boat shipyard in Greece.
Practical
About 6 nm SW of Karlovasi by sea. Samosin gives no anchoring data - treat as a settled-weather stop and sound in. The chapel is dedicated to St Isidore of Chios, patron of sailors. Exposed to the NW meltemi.
