Skyros

Skyros is located 25 nautical miles from Kimi, in Euboea, and 118 nautical miles from Piraeus.

This is the most remote of the Sporades Islands, when starting off from Skiathos. It is very rugged, densely wooded in the north and barren in the south.

The island's main port is Linaria. There are many lovely beaches and low mountains to explore and caves for some underwater fishing. At the taverns you can savour fresh fish, lobster and the local cheeses.

The town of Skyros, also called Horio locally, clambers up a hill in a white half circle, like an ancient theatre.
