Gazing out at the open sea, nature and tradition combine to create an ideal setting for travelers. It’s the perfect starting point to explore both the well-known and hidden gems of Skiathos. Gorgeous beaches stretch along the southern coast of the islqnd, easily accessible by public transport or car, including the biggest and most famous Koukounaries Beach, where golden sand left on your feet will leave visitors with a lasting memory. While in the area, don’t miss the delicious dishes cooked in the wood-fired oven at Alamar restaurant.
The Old Port, still in its historical location for centuries, is full of traditional boats ready to take you to the island’s most remote northern beaches, nearby islets, or even to neighboring islands of Skopelos and Alonissos.
Delightful tavernas scattered among the cobbled streets serve up the aromas and flavors of authentic Greek cuisine. Be sure to visit Taverna Amfiliki at the guesthouse, the renowned Marmita, the traditional Varthalamis Taverna, the seafront Skouna Restaurant, and of course, the unique Bourtzi Café-Restaurant in Skiathos’ Bourtzi area.

A Journey Through Skiathos: Where History, Faith, and Beauty Meet
Monasteries, churches, and chapels dot the island’s mountains. It is said that there was once one chapel which celebrated for each day of the year. If you're lucky, you may witness one of their festive celebrations. Organized hiking trails and digital apps make exploring the lush green mountains easy and enjoyable. Don’t miss a trip to the Kastro, the medieval settlement on the northern cliffs built to protect the locals from pirates. There you’ll also find at least three Byzantine monasteries: Panagia Eikonistria (patron saint of the island), Panagia Kounistra and Panagia Evangelistria, the latter still active and home to the island’s only museum—where the first Greek flag was sewn!
Walking through the village is a pleasure—wander the cobblestone streets, discover hidden corners, feel the island’s charm, visit the house of Papadiamantis, Greece’s greatest short-story writer, explore an authentic traditional Skiathian house at the local folklore museum, and enjoy shopping along the main Papadiamanti Street. At EGA, you'll find unique gifts for you and your friends, as reminders of your wonderful journey.
