Highlights
  • Lalaria Beach - Accessible only by boat, Lalaria is considered one of Greeceā€™s most stunning beaches. This dream-like location features enormous white cliffs emerging from the clear, deep blue sea.

  • Il Kastro - Situated at the northern tip of Skiathos island, the ancient village of Kastro sits atop a cliff overlooking the sea. Today, visitors can admire the remnants of past civilizations, including a drawbridge, churches, palaces, and houses. Where possible, these structures have been reconstructed to help us understand the history and culture that once thrived in Kastro.

  • Katigiorgis - Also known as Agios Georgios or St. George, Katigiorgis is a small village with a fishing harbor and beach on the east coast of Pelion. It is the closest point on Pelion to the island of Skiathos.

  • Tsougrias Beach - Tsougrias is the most frequented islet across from the port of Skiathos. This picturesque spot is covered with pine trees and eucalyptus and boasts stunning beaches with green crystalline waters.

Additional Information

The boat departs from Skiathos Port and heads north of the island. After passing the Blue Caves, the first stop is the white-pebbled Lalaria Beach. Youā€™ll have about an hour of free time for swimming and enjoying the scenery. A short 5-minute sail will then take us to the old village of Kastro, the islandā€™s former capital, where you can admire it from the beach or walk up to the main gate of the old city. Our next destination is either Katigioris, a small fishing village in Pelion Mountain, or Asselinos Beach. Here, youā€™ll have ample time for lunch and swimming.

The Kalypso Rocked! - The views were incredible and the crew was friendly and engaging! The boat was perfect- clean, playing great music, and had a well-stocked bar! We made numerous stops at varied islands and beaches and had adequate time on shore to enjoy them all! We highly recommend the Kalypso and crew!

Excellent - Amazing day on Kalypsoā€™s last sea and sun tour of the island for 2023. Recommended. This was our first trip to Skiathos.

Very good - A lovely relaxing day without any pressure and with a beautiful breeze to keep you cool, but remember your sun creamā€¦ very good value for money and wouldnā€™t hesitate to do it again. Commentary for the island by the onboard representative of the boat was informative but not annoying. Lunch available at the taverna was good. A great day ending back in the port around 5pm where you can then continue your day with drinks and food from the beautiful restaurants and barsā€¦

Easy to get around - Snorkelling was really good . Lovely clear water. Limited space for those that donā€™t want to hire sun-bed. Very easy to navigate island by the regular buses.

Not getting what you payed for - The trip didnā€™t go as planned, they went for Tsougria island first, it was okay, no big deal at least it was a planned destination. The to ag. eleni (you can get there by bus) a crowded beach that was unplanned. The final and third stop was the mainland where the boat parked for 2 hours just to waste some time after which we went straight back to the port we left from. No lalaria, no kastro, so the beaches that are only approachable by boat were left unvisited. I recommend asking before boarding if they plan to go to lalaria, if not ask for refund. For us it was a waste of time and money, felt like a scam to be honest.

Could not go due to storm that lasted for 3 days - We were looking forward to this trip but due to extreme weather the trip was cancelled at the last minute. The whole area was shut down and we were not allowed to leave our hotel. Could not rearrange as we were due to go home before the tour could be resheduled.

Atrocious customer support - Changed itinerary even when I contacted them prior to find out if everything was going according to plan I was advised it was. Onboard the calypso I noticed extra stopping points and when I enquired they had combined two tours. It was not possible for us to spend the extra hours on the tour as we had to finalise our yacht charter that afternoon Consequently we disembarked and lost the entire cost of the tour for 4 people. Very poor customer service care. Took no responsibility for change and no advance warning so I was not able to cancel trip and get a refund šŸ¤¬ 4 v unimpressed ex customers from Sydney Australia. September 15 2023.
