Default Skiathos, Greece

Skiathos (Greek: Σκιάθος), Latin forms: Sciathos and Sciathus is a city and a small island in the Aegean Sea belonging to Greece. It is next to Skopelos, it also consists of 1 main town (Skiathos Town) and the settlements being Koukounaries, Kanapitsa, Vromolimnos and Troullos. Skiathos is the westernmost island in the Sporades group of islands. The mainland Greece along with Magnesia is to the west. The name of the island dates back to ancient times. The island is linked to mainland Greece with sea routes from Thessaloniki, Volos, Agios Konstantinos and also to the rest of the Sporades (All by hydrofoil, Hellenic seaways)

Skiathos has approximately 70 beaches including one nudist beach at south end of the island (Banana beach).

It is also my favorite Greek island
