Sailing Itineraries from Skiathos

Skiathos offers some fantastic sailing for both one and two week charters. You can start your holiday by enjoying the unspoiled bays and small ports of the Gulf of Volos. Note that Istion's charter base in Volos is also a good spot to start your charter if the Gulf is where you want to spend most of your time. Further west, the beautiful green islands of the Sporades including Skopelos, Alonissos and Skyros then beckon you to pay them a visit. Sheltered and unspoiled anchorages along the way, coupled with sandy white beaches, are a common feature of all these islands.

The area is well known for the Alonissos National Marine Park. Dolphins, sea turtles and the endangered Monachus-Monachus or Mediterranean Seal lives there. If you are lucky you may encounter some of these most beautiful and friendliest of marine creatures on your trip!
