Preview - the picturesque traffic-free Village harbour (10 mins) saw the Mamma Mia ‘Fathers Arrival’. Cobbled lanes lead to the taverna-lined harbour, shops, clubs, bars, and all services.
Most Skiathos villas are built in traditional Aegean island style, with low-pitched red-tile roofs, blue shutters, white or pastel walls - just like 'Orchard Villa' above (and no giant multi-storey hotels)
Skiathos has a world-class scenic coast and (click ⇒) views, and unlike most Greek islands, literally scores of sandy beaches and coves. The dozen or so larger beaches have tavernas, bars, and water-sports.
All beaches on the main island are within 5-25mns drive, plus maybe a scramble down to a favourite secluded cove. It's also pleasant - but takes longer - by water-taxi from the harbour, and to beaches on nearby islets Tsougria and Arkos (with simple cantinas).
Press reviews:
"The Times" Skiathos is no.1 "Top Greek Island" (review ⇩), and 'best buy' review 'Which ?' names Skiathos joint no.2 "Top Greek Island"
"The Times" says ... Petite Skiathos is home to a huge 63 of Greece’s most picture-perfect beaches. Deep green pine forests cloak the hilly interior, while beautiful, vivacious Skiathos Town - your spot for harbour-view cocktail bars and gourmet restaurants - becomes a lively street party every summer night. It’s an island for the young and young at heart, including a few celebrity regulars, but plenty of affordable tavernas, bars and beaches even without a Hollywood budget.
- Travel to Skiathos
Preview - the airport upgrade gave us more budget air-fares and direct UK/EU flights, inc B-A in Jul-Aug.
Other options: budget flights to Athens and onward by domestic 'Aegean/Olympic' airline or express hydrofoil.
It's also surprisingly quick and easy to combine a Skiathos holiday with a car tour ... possible stop-overs Venice, the Alps, Athens.
Good Local transport - bus, radio-taxis, water-taxis, ferries for island or mainland trips. Away from beaches are dozens of village and country tavernas; hill walks, forest hikes, horse-riding, trail bikes; and restored Byzantine monasteries/chapels (but no 'classical' ruins!).
... and all within minutes; on an island only 6 x 9 miles many see as the most attractive in all Greece.
