Municipal Unit of Marathokabos

Among the communities of Samos, the Municipal Unit of Marathokabos stands out for its setting on the slopes of Mount Kerkis, the island’s highest mountain. This part of southwestern Samos combines inland settlements with a coast opening onto the Aegean Sea, where the rugged relief gives way to small bays and cultivated ground. Samos has long been associated with Muscat grapes and its celebrated sweet wines, a tradition that remains an important part of the island’s identity. Ancient Samos was also the birthplace of the mathematician Pythagoras, whose name endures across the island.
