The island's only real port — a working harbour town and the practical gateway for every visitor arriving by ferry.

Kamariotissa is Samothraki's main port and the only significant ferry gateway to the island, which makes it the first and last place almost every visitor sees — a working harbour with fishing boats alongside the ferry dock, backed by a waterfront strip of tavernas, cafés, and a few shops.
It's more transit hub than destination in its own right, but it's a genuinely useful base: buses and taxis to the rest of the island start here, and the seafront tavernas serving fresh fish make it a reasonable spot for a first or last meal on the island.
The whitewashed Church of Panagia Kamariotissa near the harbour is worth a quick look while you wait for a ferry, and the waterfront is a pleasant enough place to watch the sunset if you've got a spare hour before departure.
