Right in the vicinity, you can walk to many other small beaches.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8495\" style=\"width: 1180px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/en\/skiathos\/img_8247-2\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8495\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8495\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8495\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8247.jpg\" alt=\"Paralia Agia Eleni \" width=\"1170\" height=\"588\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8247.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8247-768x385.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8495\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Paralia Agia Eleni Beach<\/p><\/div>\n<p>As is typical for us, we just turned the car around at the terminus to see this beach and headed further to less accessible places, of which Skiathos offers plenty. Thanks to its compact size, Skiathos is ideal for those who want to explore the island by car, motorcycle, quad bike, or on foot from the bus stops, while enjoying breathtaking views of the sea and landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Just be prepared for often tricky and gravelly\/dusty roads to more remote spots and beaches. It was perhaps the first time we had to wash the car before returning it to the rental agency, as it was completely covered in orange dust.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Skiathos_trips_what_to_do_on_Skiathos_Island\"><\/span>Skiathos trips, what to do on Skiathos Island<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Skiathos_Town\"><\/span>Skiathos Town<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #008000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/searchresults.en.html?city=-828369&amp;aid=347511&amp;no_rooms=1&amp;group_adults=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Skiathos Town<\/a><\/strong><\/span> is one of the most charming and vibrant places on the island.

You park above the hill, and it&#8217;s a few minutes&#8217; walk to the beach down a relatively steep trail. I can manage it in flip-flops, but sturdy shoes are obviously better. Right by the beach, you&#8217;ll find a Greek tavern with a bar, and (unfortunately) sunbeds with umbrellas are for rent on the beach.<\/p>\n<p>The beach is surrounded by steep rocks and lush vegetation, giving it a sense of isolation and peace. Due to its remote location, the beach is less frequented than other more famous beaches on the island, making it an ideal spot for those seeking peace and privacy.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8482\" style=\"width: 1180px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/en\/skiathos\/img_8254\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8482\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8482\" class=\"wp-image-8482 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8254.jpg\" alt=\"Kryfi Ammos Beach Skiathos \/ What to do on Skitahos Island\" width=\"1170\" height=\"756\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8254.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8254-768x496.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8482\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kryfi Ammos Beach Skiathos<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_8492\" style=\"width: 1180px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/en\/skiathos\/img_8256\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8492\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8492\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8492\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8256.jpg\" alt=\"Kryfi Ammos Beach Skiathos \" width=\"1170\" height=\"673\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8256.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8256-768x441.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8492\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kryfi Ammos Beach Skiathos<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_8491\" style=\"width: 1180px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/en\/skiathos\/img_8257\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8491\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8491\" class=\"wp-image-8491 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8257.jpg\" alt=\"Kryfi Ammos Beach Skiathos \/ What to do on Skiathos\" width=\"1170\" height=\"854\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8257.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8257-768x560.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8491\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kryfi Ammos Beach Skiathos<\/p><\/div>\n<p>During our visit, the main first part of the beach with sunbeds was full.

Continue along the road towards Mandraki and stay on the side roads leading into the island&#8217;s interior. Exact directions can be a bit confusing as the roads aren&#8217;t always well-marked, so it&#8217;s good to have a map or GPS with you. Google Maps on our phones was enough for us.<\/li>\n<li><strong>On foot:<\/strong> When you arrive at the bus terminus, you&#8217;ll have to continue on foot. The trail isn&#8217;t too demanding, but it leads through hilly and natural terrain. Be prepared to get covered in orange dust &#8211; yellow sand. The walk will take you approximately 30 minutes at a brisk pace. I recommend going in the morning hours and taking plenty of fluids with you. There are beautiful views, and here too, the journey itself is the destination.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div id=\"attachment_8479\" style=\"width: 1180px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/en\/skiathos\/img_8262-2\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8479\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8479\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8479\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8262-2.jpg\" alt=\"Kryfi Ammos Beach Skiathos \" width=\"1170\" height=\"863\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8262-2.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_8262-2-768x566.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8479\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kryfi Ammos Beach Skiathos<\/p><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>You might also be interested in: <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><a style=\"color: #008000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/en\/golfo-aranci-cala-moresca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sardinia, Golfo Aranci &#8211; Cala Moresca <\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #008000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/en\/baccoleno-viewpoint-and-accommodation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tuscany: Baccoleno viewpoint and accommodation <\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #008000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/en\/tuscan-villa-barberino\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tuscan Villa Barberino <\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #008000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dovolenkarka.cz\/dovolena-v-provence\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vacation in Provence <\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you flying to the island of Skiathos and wondering what trips to take?
