Skopelos straddles the slopes above its harbour on Skopelos Island’s northern Aegean coast, a position that has concentrated the island’s main port, shops and waterfront life beneath the old town. Whitewashed, red-tiled houses climb toward the Kastro, the site of a medieval fortress, while narrow lanes connect small squares and churches. Part of the Northern Sporades, the island is noted for its wooded terrain, contrasting with the drier Cycladic islands farther south. Skopelos also provided locations for the film Mamma Mia!, including the island’s Agios Ioannis Kastri chapel. Browse other webcams across the Northern Sporades and Thessaly and Central Greece to place this island setting in a wider geographic context.
