The Greek island of Skiathos is part of the Northern Sporades, a small archipelago in the Aegean Sea, not far from continental Greece. With more than 60 sandy beaches along a stunning white-sand coast and crystal-clear waters, Skiathos is an ideal destination for a boat trip this summer. No wonder why the producers of the film Mamma Mia, starring Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan, picked this island as a the main filming location of this Hollywood blockbuster.
Skiathos is a green island full of pine trees that give to the island an idyllic and charming character. The northern side of the island is uninhabited and the beaches there are quiet and secluded, so highly recommended if you book a boat hire in Skiathos. If you are looking for a bit of fun, the southern part of the island is the place to be.
