The 2008 hit film Mamma Mia! was adored by millions of people all over the world. To provide the impression that the tale was taking place on the mythical island of Kalokairi, many of the scenes for the well-known film were filmed on the Greek islands of Skópelos and Skiathos. Mamma Mia! was the most popular of all the movies filmed on the island. The thriller Act of Piracy (1988), and The Telemachy (2012) made up the rest of the top three most popular movies filmed on this gorgeous island.
The island developed into a thriving shipbuilding hub during the 1900s. The wood used to construct the ships came from the island’s extensive pine trees. Even today, a small shipyard in the island’s town’s northern section continues to construct caiques, a traditional style of Greek boat.
I suggest you pack comfortable walking shoes because there is no room for counting calories on THIS holiday! I give you the most popular list of what you should eat and drink on the island.
Whether you’re going for exquisite sunsets to explore, or just lazing on the beach, Skiathos is a bucket list holiday destination, without any doubt. Chat with your friends and plan your great escape to Skiathos. You’ll be forever happy for doing so.

Northeast of the island, next to a lagoon and a lowland isthmus dividing it from the peninsula of Lazareta, is where Skiathos International Airport is located.
