Move your mouse over the islands or their names to reveal their secrets.
The red line represents a possible two week route.
The islands of the Northern Sporades are steeped in history and featured
in the voyages of Jason and the Argonauts. Many ancient buildings and ruins
can be found, especially on the more remote islands - there are even rumours
of buried treasure!
Skiathos claims that it has more beaches and better beaches than any
other Greek Island. This is hard to argue with, as not only are there enough
beaches to visit several a day but many are of the finest yellow sand.
Koukounaris is the longest beach on Skiathos and a popular holiday
destination with many exclusive villas nestling on the hillside.
Skiathos Town enjoys a double bay with two harbours, one for yachts and
the second for fishing boats. The twin bays are lined with cafes, restaurants
and bars catering for every type of cuisine.
Alonnisos is well-known for its interesting guided walks and for its wild flowers. It is the only inhabited island in the National Marine Park, home of Monachus monachus, the Monk Seal.
