Although Skiathos is relatively small (about 46 km²), the Greek island attracts many tourists every year with its numerous beautiful beaches and small bays. What makes Koukounaries Beach so unique? Its natural surroundings, of course. A thick pine forest, an endless golden sand beach, and gorgeous views of the sea make this one of the most untouched beaches in the Mediterranean.

In the town of Skiathos, you will also find a variety of taverns, restaurants, and bars. Papadiamanti Street is the ideal meeting point for night owls to find the perfect place to party. The monastery, Evangelistria, is also worth seeing because of its stunning location on a hill. It’s also the only active monastery on Skiathos.

During the day, you will return to Kivo Art & Gourmet Hotel.

Today your journey comes to an end. After breakfast, say goodbye to the beautiful islands after fifteen days. Pack your suitcases for the last time and drive to the Skiathos Airport, where you will depart with all kinds of new impressions.
