Watch the boats come in and the world go by with a glass or two of wine, on the child – safe Grandstand terrace of Harbour View. With its panoramic vista from the Island of Alonissos to the hills behind the Town, this is an ideal place to relax.
For more energetic moments there are steps down to the ‘Paralia’ with its numerous tavernas/cafes (most with free Wifi) and shops, whilst the Harbour beach is only ten minutes walk away. For those wishing to hire a car or take a bus there are many other beaches with crystal clear seas and the green and rugged interior of this beautiful island to explore. Walks, with spell - binding views, take the visitor through fertile valleys and pine – clad hills. Numerous springs make Skopelos unlike other Aegean Islands and we particularly like the early months of the year when the gardens and olive groves are carpeted with wild flowers.
