LOCATION
Skyros is a hidden gem among the Greek islands, part of the Sporades group in the Aegean Sea — though it often feels like it has one foot in the Cyclades due to its landscape and architecture. The island’s landscape is strikingly diverse — lush pine forests dominate the north, while the south features rugged hills and barren cliffs, reminiscent of the Cycladic islands. Its main town, Chora, is built amphitheatrically around a Byzantine castle and charms with its whitewashed houses, winding alleys, and traditional tavernas. Skyros is also home to the rare and ancient Skyrian ponies, which can still be seen on farms or during cultural events. The island’s beaches range from the lively and accessible Molos to the secluded coves of Agios Fokas and Atsitsa, known for their clear turquoise waters. Local traditions remain strong, especially during the unique Skyrian Carnival, where age-old rituals and folklore come alive. Skyros also boasts a rich culinary scene, with highlights like lobster pasta, local cheeses, and almond sweets. Easily reached by ferry from Kymi in Evia or by a short flight from Athens, Skyros is an ideal destination for travelers seeking nature, culture, and tranquility all in one place.
