Skopelos - Mamma Mia Island
The imminent release of the film version of Mamma Mia is sure to create tremendous interest in the island of Skopelos which provides the film-set and backdrop for the movie starring Pierce Brosnan, Meryl Streep, Julie Walters, Amanda Seyfried and Colin Firth.
It’s a number of years since I first visited Skopelos, but his beautiful island has managed to resist the rush that other Greek islands have endured due to it’s lack of an airport - visitors fly to Skiathos and then make a sea journey to the largest of the Sporadic Isles. This journey allows the best views of Skopelos Town - from the sea - as you sail into it’s pretty harbour. The peacefulness has been punctuated in recent times as a result of the filming of this feelgood movie which premiered in London this week and this is likely to result in further interest in the island so now is the time to get booked for Skopelos.
We are able to offer a number of options on Skopelos and will be happy to discuss the best places to stay and some gtreat places to visit including Panormos beach, Skyros, and Alonissos. Call us today on 01904 870995 or visit our website.
