The Blue House Art Gallery was created having as dream the harmonious coexistence of tradition and modern art.Designing jewellery with a distinct identity that reflects the respect and the sensitivity towards Greek art. The materials that are used are silver and gold which are decorated with precious or semiprecious stones. Vasilis and Areti with designers from all over Greece will be there to offer you harmony and elegance.
If you love jewellery with a twist or want a special one off piece you really should not leave Skiathos without visiting lovely Areti at the Blue House Art Gallery. Areti will show you many pieces with no pressure to buy. Beautiful stones

We sailed with Captain Pakis who was so knowledgable and told us the local stories - the beaches we visited including the shipwreck we incredible - because of Covid there was no food but this was made clear when we booked so we took our own packed lunch with us and it worked perfectly because it meant we didn't lose any swimming time while waiting for food - water and fruit are provided - there were 2 stops for swimming off the boat and one from the beach - beautiful weather, scenery and we had a fantastic day - definitely worth the trip!

I've been coming back to “my” lovely Panormos bay for four years… Like I said, Panormos beach is for me one of the most beautiful beaches on Skopelos, where I spent a wonderful holiday every time I come. Crystal clear sea, not too many tourists (in June and September), most beautiful views in the morning, when the beach is still “empty” and the sea is calm like an oil and in the evening when the tourists leave and you can watch perfect sunsets...Place to run away from daily routine, work just or at least for one week in the year. Don't expect loud music, stands with souveniers, T shirts etc…

Crystal clear water and lots of fish! ???????????? Beautiful spot - very peaceful just the sound of the cicadas and the sea. If you’re getting a bus it’s a longish walk from the road (and back up again). Definitely need beach shoes as slippery stones getting in

The best beach on the island in my opinion, sandy beach, recommend it for small children, smooth entry into the sea, clear and turquoise water, beach with umbrellas and sunbeds and a very good taverna near by with a lovely beach bar (try mojito strawberries :)

We make a point to visit this area ( through the back streets overlooking the old port ( keep the sea on your left all the time and you will find the area.) not the beach but the rocks that jute out and you see Skiathos port from a different angle as well as beautiful view of the sea and other beaches along the coast .. We also jump in and have a swim more often with the locals/ children who seem to enjoy jumping off the rocks. The beach is very small and not really well kept as the Taverna at the bottom is derelict. A lovely walk back down other back streets

Whilst it is hard to get to Il Kastro is well worth the effort. Stunning views and interesting ruins and churches set on top of a cliff. Down below is a beach with a fantastic taverna with food that is excellent.

Our favourite beach, when on Skiathos, was the one at Mandraki. For it we took the bus to Koukounaries village, but got off at a stop called 'Mandraki Beach' just before the final stop at Koukounaries Beach. The bus leaves Skiathos town every 15 minutes and with many stops in between the whole trip takes about 40 minutes. Once off the bus we started a wonderful walk through a forest of umbrella pines, which are not very common in Greece, where forested coastal areas mainly consist of the nice smelling, but a bit less impressive Aleppo pine. There is a path for hikers, while drivers with a car or a bike will use a small unsurfaced road towards Mandraki with its limited parking space. Not too many people are usually found on this forest path, where one can observe various plants like strawberry trees, rock roses, heather, mastix, smilax or a not very common Daphne gnidioides with white flowers and red berries at the same time in September. Mandraki Beach has golden sand, which continues in the sea, making it easy to get into the water. In this respect just like Koukounaries Beach, but without the razzmatazz around it. There are stalls selling drinks and snacks and parts of Mandraki are covered with sunbeds and umbrellas, but there is also an area, where one can enjoy the beach without using these comforts. Walking the same way back we then loved to walk along the lagoon of Koukounaries with its interesting flora and birdlife to the final bus stop by the beach with a bigger chance to find a seat on the often crowded bus to Skiathos town.
