This is an unforgettable boat trip around Skiathos to see its contrasting beauty and lush vegetation.
The boat leaves the port at 10:00 and heads up to the north of the island. After passing the Blue Caves the first stop is the white-pebbled beach Lalaria, which is only accessible by boat. We spend one-hour swimming and then we reach the old village of Kastro after a five-minute journey. During the one hour stay, you can walk up and explore the old village, which was abandoned in 1829 and was used as a refuge to protect the inhabitants against various invasions. Next, we stop at Katigiorgis, a small fishing village in Pelion or at Asselinos beach at the northern part of the island, allowing plenty of time for lunch or swimming. Sailing past other beaches, we reach Skiathos port at approximately 17:15.
