Skopelos Island

Home > Isole > Skopelos

Skopelos is located between Skiathos island and Alonissos island in the Northern Sporades Archipelago. A true gem almost for connoisseurs, a small hidden pearl with a territory of uncontaminated nature, made of lush mountains full of fragrant pine forests, secret bays and fertile valleys. The perfect place for those who want a mix of history, relaxation and a fabulous sea.

Skopelos beaches are very suggestive and surrounded by wooded areas that increase the charm thanks to the contrast of its colors. Like the wonderful Milia beach nestled Panormos Bay with a turquoise and emerald sea with a seabed that slopes gently, perfect for families with children, or Hovolo beach, to the west with its coastline of fine white sand difficult to reach and therefore still uncontaminated.

There are many things to do in Skopelos, go and discover its coves like Stafylos linked to the myth of Dyonisos or hike and go to the famous Agios Ioannis church set of the legendary musical film “Mamma Mia”, and also walk through the capital Skopelos Town among its white houses with red roofs, get lost in its narrow streets and perhaps stop in one of its taverns to try the local flavors, finally go and visit its monasteries that represent the local culture and traditions.

The island is perfect for trekking making you reach points with breathtaking views such as the peaks of the Delphi Mountains or Mount Paoluki through paths immersed in lush nature. Skopelos is good whether you want a romantic vacation or a dynamic vacation, what are you waiting for, let yourself be enchanted by its timeless magic.
