View a map of Skopelos Town

Skopelos Town is one of Greece's most treasured towns, on a par with Hydra and Simi. It scales the steep, low hills around the harbour and has the same winding, narrow paths that characterize the more famous Cycladic islands to the south.
Scattered on the slopes of the town are just a few of the island's 123 churches. The oldest of these is Ayios Michali. The waterfront is lined with banks, cafes, shops and other tourist amenities. Interspersed among these prosaic offerings are some truly regal-looking shade trees. Many of the town's arts and crafts can be purchased up the main street leading away from the centre of the paralia. The windy back streets are definitely worth exploring.
