Skiathos beaches

Some friends of mine, have visited skiathos and they give me valuable information regarding Skiathos beaches. As a result i would like to shere this info with you....

  • Koukounaries Beach: Perhaps it is the most crowed beach from the rest of the island ... but the water is alwayes crystal and clear. . It is an organized beach with 5 series of sunbeds .... so it is good to go there early in the morning morning.Behind the beach are beautiful, shady pine trees where one can lie in the heat of the day. It is almost a kilometre long and it is located in the south coast of the island
  • Banana Beach: the beach is close to Koukounaries. You can go by the bus until to get Koukounaries .... and then you can reach the beach by walking. If you move by car or motorcycle you can go closer to the beach and then walking again. It is a beautiful beach and many people do nudism ... especially women. Organized beach with beach bar and music. It is located in the west side of Skiathos.
  • Aselinos Beach: beach with wild landscape and even if the winds are strongs you can reach it. Beach with deep black water. In general it is a steep beach which is good to avoid if you do not know ... very good swimming. Attention to the sea currents. It is on the north side of the island. There is a taverna & beach bar and s so big that it never has that "crowded" feel.
  • Small Aselinos: beach located below the Aselinos where you go by car to a point and then descends to the apron to the beach. It is the most quiet beach of the island... .. It is not organised but has a bar to get water, soft drinks and snacks. The beach is a small bay which even have winds you can enjoy the swimming. From this small beach boats begin to Skopelos and other Skiathos beaches that you can not go otherwise.
If you would like to get offshore, then there are many caiques available to take you to most beaches, but especially to Lalaria which is famous for its beautifully round, sea-formed rocks and can only be reached from the sea. They leave from the Old Port in the mornings around 10 or 11 'o clock.
