Tucked beneath the traditional neighbourhood of Plakes, this small seaside spot offers a different experience from Skiathos’ long sandy beaches. Instead of sunbeds and organised facilities, visitors will find natural rocks, clear waters and a more intimate setting close to the heart of town. Surrounded by traditional island houses and overlooking the open sea, Plakes is ideal for a refreshing swim or a quiet moment by the water. Its location makes it particularly appealing to those exploring Skiathos Town on foot.
ONE SKIATHOS EDITOR’S NOTE
We recommend Plakes for a spontaneous swim while wandering through Skiathos Town. Bring a towel, find your favourite spot on the rocks and enjoy one of the town’s most authentic seaside corners.
