Hi
Jo, Dean and daughter Hannah are due to visit Skiathos for the first time in July. We are all very excited and can't stop looking at pictures and posts on the web about anything to do with the island!! We have previously visited Zante (Kalamaki), Kefalonia (Lixouri) and Crete (Elounda) all before having our children. In recent years we have holidays with the family in France and Italy, but can't wait to get back to Greece

Congratulations of finding Skiathos for a holiday. We've been to the same Greek islands as you have and Skiathos is very different and has something they don't have but I will leave you to find out what it is. It's different things to different people. Hope you have a great holiday, come back on here and let us all know.

Hi Jo and family, welcome to the forum. I too have visited a few Greek islands, Kos, Zante and Corfu, all before finding Skiathos, when some friends of ours who had been going there for 15 odd years suggested it. That was is 2004 and next week will be our 8th visit.

Skiathos is an extremely friendly island, relatively small, but with plenty to keep you occupied on holiday. It has some beautiful green scenery, especially if you can hire a vehicle and see the north of the island. Make sure you don't just stay around the area you are staying, experience all the island has to offer.
