Attractions

Possibly the most popular of the Sporades islands, Skiathos boasts more than 60 beautiful beaches and was the setting of the popular film, Mamma Mia. Aside from the stunning coastlive, Skiathos attractions include the ruins of a 12th century Venetian fortress, and a visit to the deserted medieval town of Kastro is a sightseeing must.

There are also a number of monasteries to visit, including the 17th century Moni Evangelistria (the Monastery of Annunciation) and the Monastery of Agios Charalampos, where the local writer of short stories, Alexander Moraitidis, spent the remaining years of his life. Other interesting buildings include Bourtzi Fortress, and churches like Ayios Nikolaos and Trion Ierarchon.
