Tucked along the southwestern coast of Skiathos, just before the famous Koukounaries Beach, Maratha offers a more intimate seaside experience. Its narrow stretch of golden sand is framed by lush pine trees, creating a beautiful natural setting where the greenery meets the Aegean.
The beach features organised sections with sunbeds and umbrellas, while its generally calm waters make it an inviting place for swimming and relaxing. Smaller and quieter than neighbouring Koukounaries, Maratha is particularly appealing to couples and travellers looking for a more laid-back beach day.
ONE SKIATHOS EDITOR’S NOTE
We recommend Maratha for those who love the natural beauty of Koukounaries but prefer a smaller, more peaceful setting. Arrive early, find your spot beneath the pines and enjoy a slow day by the water.
