Old capital of Kastro
Cooled by the meltemi winds and jutting out into the waters of the northern coast on an isolated headland are the clifftop ruins of Kastro, This old walled medieval town was the major inhabited town of Skiathos until 1821 although all that remains now are three small churches. Connected to the mainland by just a narrow strip of land, there are majestic views across to mainland Greece and also down to the beach below.

Byzantine monasteries
Dating back to the time of the Turkish occupation, most of the monasteries on Skiathos are now in ruins. Still standing, the monastery of Evangelistria enjoys a delightful setting poised above a gorge and is famous throughout the Aegean as being a former refuge for freedom fighters during the War of Independence and site of the first raising of the modern Greek flag in 1807.

With glistening whitewashed houses set around a horseshoe shaped harbour, Skopelos Town has a much more relaxed and traditional Greek feel with some delightfully uncrowded beaches on the sheltered southern coast, the most popular being Stafilos and Velanio, the latter a favourite of the naturists.
