Skiathos

 

Author: Bill Tartaris

Why Skiathos?

Because Skiathos could truly be the destination of your dreams. In common with most Greek islands Skiathos enjoys a beautiful climate, blue seas and golden beaches. From the moment you land in Skiathos, you will be made to feel at home. English is widely spoken everywhere, from the most sophisticated places to the most traditional tavernas. The opinion of most tourists who have visited and spent some time on the island is that the feeling of welcome and frienliness extended by the local people makes a stay here especially rewarding and memorable.

Skiathos is the smallest but most cosmopolitan island of the Sporades group only two hours away from Volos by ferry.

It is the most developed Sporades Island from the point of view of touristy facilities and offers good services, infrastructures and organisations. Even if tourism is a recent phenomenon in Skiathos, it has extended very quickly and the commercialization of the little island has now almost reached the ones of islands like Santorini, Corfu, Mykonos and Rhodes.

The island is famous for its beautiful endless and sandy beaches boarded by dense and verdant pine forest, coming down to the crystalline waters.

Holidays in Skiathos is ideal for those who love exciting nightlife, shopping, crowded beaches, great fun and entertainment. For the visitor seeking a traditional and "Greek" place to enjoy calm holidays, the other Sporades will be a better destination. Nevertheless, the impressively crowded Skiathos and the heavy touristy atmosphere creating a scene a bit artificial don't take away the island's beauty picturesque walks, hidden valleys, a few quitter beaches, caves, sculpting rocks and small coves are the many jewels one can find in Skiathos if he takes time to explore the island.
