Is a holiday rental in Skiathos worth it?

Skiathos is a small but fine island in the Northern Sporades, famous for its over 60 beaches that line the densely forested coast like pearls. Koukounaries Beach, framed by a unique pine forest lagoon, is regularly ranked among the most beautiful beaches in the Mediterranean and has repeatedly been chosen as one of the top beaches in Europe. The fine golden sand, crystal-clear water, and shade-providing pines right by the beach make it perfect.

The island's capital, Skiathos Town, is a picturesque ensemble of whitewashed houses with red tile roofs that cluster around a natural double harbor. Taverns, cocktail bars, and small boutiques line the waterfront promenade and the car-free Papadiamanti Street, named after the island's most famous writer, whose birthplace is now a museum. The nightlife in Skiathos is the liveliest in the Sporades, attracting a young, international crowd.

In addition to the well-known beaches on the southern coast, a boat trip to the wild northern coast is worth it: Lalaria Beach, with its round white pebbles and natural rock arch, is only accessible by boat and is one of the most photogenic beaches in Greece. The crumbling Kastro, a Byzantine fortress town on a cliff in the north, offers panoramic views and history at the same time. Skiathos became internationally known through the film 'Mamma Mia!' (although it was filmed on nearby Skopelos), and the Sporades atmosphere of the film is omnipresent here. The island can be reached by ferry from Thessaloniki or Volos and is perfect for a week-long beach holiday with Greek charm.
