Have any forum members visited Skyros or have any insight into the island. we have looked at it as a possible alternative for July, the benefit being it has its own airport albeit via the mainland.

This is what Val says about Skyros … Skyros is WONDERFUL 💙 🇬🇷 💙 There are 2 or 3 options to get there, either fly from Athens (once a day during the summer). Fly to Athens hire a car, self drive across Evia (also lovely) & hop on the ferry at Kymi & that would mean you land in Linaria 💙. Fly to Skiathos & possibly ferry there, we've only done it the other way around! Can't check on that yet as the ferry schedules aren't out for June. We absolutely love Skyros, been twice & will definitely go again. If they do decide to go, I can give them heaps of recommendations

Agreed, Hey presto! This says a lot about how a forum still works in the era of Social Media sites. You try finding a post from 2019 on Facebook!
It's great how this forum has holiday reports going back to it's inception in 2013.
Thanks for sticking with the forum, it would be great to have more regular contributors.

“Thanks for sticking with the forum, it would be great to have more regular contributors” ………..
I’ll do my bit in May and June, Woody. I’ll hopefully have something interesting to drivel on about in early May with all the Pascha celebrations going on.
