From our local specialist

Tree Doorway
"With its summery buzz, restaurants and bars, Skiathos Town is great for a night out. If you’re still awake in the early hours of the morning, head over to Bourtzi, a little peninsula topped with the ruins of a Venetian fortress, to watch the sun rise over Skopelos."
