GENERAL INFORMATION
A few words about Skiathos
Skiathos is the closest land to the Sporades islands, Skiathos-Skopelos-Alonnisos. Skiathos has been inhabited since prehistoric times, probably by the Pelasgians and later probably by the Cretans. [2] It has always been called Skiathos since the earliest times. Skiathos made a significant contribution to its navy in the Greek Revolution of 1821 and was part of the first Greek state. Also in 1807 the first Greek flag (which originally had a cross in the center with blue depth) was made in the Evangelistria Monastery in the presence of great chieftains such as Nikotsaras, Yiannis Stathas and the Holy Reverend Niphon. The flag was blessed in 1807 where Theodore Kolokotronis also attended. In 1829 the Skiathians abandoned the Castle and returned to the old Byzantine town, the present city of Skiathos.
The leading Greek educator, philosopher and teacher of the Theophilos Kairis genocide was banished to Skiathos, by decree of the then Government, and was confined to the monastery of Evangelism from November 1839 until March 1840.
The city of Skiathos, a modern holiday center with excellent tourist infrastructure, is also the only settlement on the island. Situated on the southeastern tip of the island in a windless bay that divides the island of Bourtzi, the settlement is relatively new since it was built around 1829-1830 at the site of the corresponding ancient city. The trademark has always been its large natural harbor, which regulated city life in its older and younger years. Today, it is a refuge for boats, which gives the island a vibrant cosmopolitan character. Walking through the settlement, visitors are mesmerized by the cobblestone pavements, the whitewashed tile houses, the picturesque harbor secured by four lush islets and the beautiful Bourtzi.

The major sights of the city are:

  • The home of the famous writer Alexandros Papadiamantis (who is honored on the island every January 2-3 and March 4) who was born and lived here.
  • Bourtzi, the small verdant islet with the ruins of a Venetian fortress and the neoclassical old school buildings that house the Skiathos Cultural Center. This small peninsula, which divides the port of Skiathos, was formerly a fortress founded by the Gizzi brothers, who occupied Skiathos in 1207. It was besieged with warships and warriors but was destroyed in 1660 when it was captured. Franciscan Morosini. Today, Bourtzi is a beautiful pine-covered recreational area with magnificent sea views.

How to get to the Island

  • By high-speed or conventional ferry from the ports of Agios Konstantinos (Central Greece) and Volos
  • By conventional ferry from the port of Thessaloniki during the summer season
  • By air from Athens and Thessaloniki.

Skiathos is connected by air to most European states.
