Sporades Islands

Skiathos, Skopelos, Alonissos, and Skyros are the four islands of the Sporades group, with its giant green neighbor Evia often included but not officially a member. These aren’t your classic Greek Islands of rocky cliffs and sugar-cube villages, but fertile, heavily forested islands with hills that roll down to some of the Aegean’s best beaches. Beautiful beach views are on offer at some of the best places to stay in the Sporades Islands, as are peace and quiet, fantastic walking opportunities, and plenty of sunshine.
