Holidays in Skopelos

Holidays in Skopelos are about shrugging off your stresses amidst glorious scenery. Drinking in peace and quiet. And going with the slow flow of Greek island days.

The island is a gentle green gem, far from the clutches of mainstream development. Inland, forests, monasteries and olive groves veil the hills as they roll down to secluded coves and pebble beaches washed by dazzling seas. Wherever you go, tranquillity reigns supreme, broken only by chirping cicadas. And reluctant walkers won't be left stranded. Buses connect the towns and there's the pleasure of hiring boats to discover the hidden coves burrowed into the coast.

The biggest of the Northern Sporades, Skopelos does, naturally, have its towns. Beautifully preserved Skopelos Town is a picturesque harbour town of white cottages, cobbled lanes and bright blue tavernas, whilst Glossa shines like a pearl above an exquisite bay. Both promise quiet days and low-key evenings at waterside tavernas. And if you're looking for even quieter venues, Thomson offer a choice of country villas. Antigoni Villa and Villa Raches are brilliant for couples wanting tranquil self-catering holidays in rural Skopelos.

Plus, Thomson have some delicious holidays deals here. Whether you're after last-minute dashes to the sun, cheap breaks or excellent bargains on summer holidays, you couldn't be in better hands when it comes to holidays in Skopelos.
