What to expect

This is an ideal trip for all the family to visit places only accessible by boat, far away from the crowds, on the beautiful south part of Skopelos island.

Set sail aboard your boat Kalypso from Skiathos port, cruising to the neighboring island of Skopelos. During the sail, you will have the chance to see and take pictures of this very green side of the island.

Kastani is the beautiful sandy beach on the island's west side, where “Mamma Mia” was filmed in 2007, and it's your first stop of the day. A fantastic chance for you to swim, sunbathe and take photos on the beach.

From Kastani it's just a 25-minute hop to the beautiful port of Panormos, in time for lunch at one of the beach tavernas. Of course, there is going to be plenty of time available for you to relax under the sun, or have your drinks during the 2-hour stay.

Finally, Kalypso sets sail for the last destination of the day, one of the most beautiful beaches in Skopelos, called Milia, just the ideal place to conclude the day. Once back on board, you will enjoy the leisurely cruise back to Skiathos port.
