Skiathos is to the Sporades islands as Mykonos is to the Cyclades while Skopelos is known mainly from the movie Mamma Mia and now has become a pilgrimage site for fans of the film and the group Abba. They are both beautiful islands though they can be a nuisance to get to. See Matt's Guide to Skiathos and Guide to Skopelos for more about the islands.

Zorbathes Villas: Zorbathes is a peaceful valley which is hidden close to the center of Skiathos Island. It is green & fertile & surrounded by pine forests. Through the bottom of the valley run stream beds whose banks are covered by an abundance of wild flowers & ferns, & are shaded by massive plane trees. Owners Lida & Geof Baldry have lived here for over 20 years and have spent that time creating an environment which has all the creature comforts
