Days 1-4

Alonissos - Greek Emerald Gem

Fresh off the plane in Skiathos, you'll hop onto a Ferry to take you to the once deserted island of Alonissos. Experience the serene charm of nature in all its laid-back splendour; scattered forests and stunning coastline with hidden coves to explore, this is a nature lovers haven. Make sure to have your walking boots pack because there are many wonderful walking trails that transverse across the island waiting to be discovered. Head out on the water to see the diverse underwater world first hand in the Marine Park, which strives to help endangered species like the monk seal. If you want to keep your feet firmly on dry land, stroll through the narrow-cobbled streets of Chora, the old town, and marvel at the traditional Greek architecture.

Days 5-7

Skiathos - The Island of Vibrant Charm

Catch the ferry back to Skiathos for some well-earned beach days. The daily agenda? Sunbathe, swim, and sleep on repeat. With over 50 sun-kissed sandy beaches to choose from, our top pick is Koukounaries Beach, renowned for its fine sand, crystal blue waters, and surrounding nature reserve that provides some shaded spots. Whilst, Vromólimnos Beach, is perfect for enjoying sundowners at a local taverna. Round things off with some time at the waterfront in Skiathos town which has charming boutiques and a whole array of bars and restaurants to pass the time.
