Skopelos beaches

Image
Skopelos is an unspoiled jewel in the Aegean Sea, with mountain slopes bedecked in dense greenery carpeting down to fine beaches and limpid waters. Despite being small, Skopelos beaches are varied and aplenty: find olive trees and plum orchards and clumps of pines by the sea’s edge, composed of slender pebbled shores or white bays, caves and coves, plus curious rock formations. (tip) Make sure to pack snorkeling goggles for swimming with curious marine life, especially around the cragged rocks. Spot the occasional turtle and fish of all stripes! The most popular of Skopelos beaches lie on the more wind-sheltered west coast, home to stretches of white shingle and pebbles backed by bars and taverns. On the flip side, the eastern shoreline is peppered with smaller and more peaceful beaches, almost always deserted. Likewise, those in the north are wilder with no facilities. Keep in mind that as a Greek island, strong Meltemi (dry and seasonal) winds can affect some of Skopelos’s beaches in

It was a lovely day today however "dead calm" with no wind, making impossible to use the sails. In any case, the environment here is natural and unspoiled with beautiful forested hills above and around the beach, while the sea water is crystal clear to enjoy. click here to see more about Stafylos beach and area

At the Coves of Amarandos

Image
At the rocky coast of Amarandos you can enjoy a tranquil and peaceful swim.  From the main bus road, between Stafylos and Agnontas, there is a dirt road on the left, through the forest, that leads to several secluded little rocky coves, perfect for snorkeling. Pine trees sweep down to the water's edge offering privacy and shade.  Click on the link for photos from the area →  Amarandos, Skopelos
