A marvelous island full of green, surrounded by unbelievably transparent turquoise waters. It is larger than the nearby Skiathos but has less tourism and therefore less related infrastructure. However it has everything a visitor will need. Skopelos town (and main port) is full of cosy cafes, tavernas, restaurants, bars and a has a descent beach with nice beach bars. However night life is calmer than Skiathos’. It is the island where most of the “Mama Mia” movie has been shot and since its launch it has become more popular. Its western coast is covered by a pine forest and surrounded by tiny and larger beaches with small white peebles where the pine trees come all along down in their magic turquoise transparent waters. Visiting the isolated ones with a boat is an unforgettable experience. Even in high season you will easily discover your private paradise little beach!!! Furthermore it has unique landscapes full of pine forests, such as "BLO" or "MPLO" that reminds you of a lovely green lake in an endless pine forest! Skopelos town and “Glossa” (the only village of the island) are still quite traditional and picturesque. You will also find picturesque churches (such as the stunning Saint John) and monasteries.
