Guide to Skiathos Resorts

"From any point on the island, the seascape is a magnificent watercolour in luminescent shades of azure, aquamarine, turquoise, emerald, gold and silver; the frame is the island's own stunning coastline of pine-cloaked rocky headlands punctuated by golden sandy beaches."

With its thoroughly easygoing holiday atmosphere, lush scenic beauty and sublime seascapes- ever changing with light of day- Skiathos demands nothing more than to be enjoyed. Skiathos main attraction is undeniably its superb range of beaches- it is said to have a greater number of sandy beaches than any other Greek island, with rocky headlands cloaked in pine and olive trees punctuated by one golden sandy beach after another. with the soft and shelving very gently into the sea in most places and virtually no strong currents, bathing is very safe, so it is no surprise that in the peak of the summer season, the lure of the beaches is simply too hard to resist.
The island's scarcely visited hinterland is equally inviting and offer a superb terrain for walking, through a landscape of long gently rolling hills, shady olive groves and lush orchards. Skiathos Town is a picturesque cluster of whitewashed, red-tiled houses sprawling between two hills. A sophisticated town with chic boutiques and tempting antique shops, it hae retained all of its traditional Greek charm. Village life continues more or less unchanged in the steep, narrow lanes, and along the pretty quayside, lively waterfront bars and restaurants rub shoulders with traditional ouzeries. In between the two harbours stands the tiny isle of Bourtzi, linked by a small causeway, whose former fortress is now open-air theatre for concerts, plays and cultural events.
