Useful Tips (travel – parking)

a) Ferry/Hydrofoil (fast boat) travel companies every year announce their time schedules on the 1st of May. Then there is a change on these time schedules usually in the first 15 days of June. Many Skopelos’ – Alonissos travellers book their accommodation and on May or June they book online their tickets.
b) Between 15/06 – 15/09 the best way to reach (Skiathos) Skopelos – Alonissos island is via scheduled flight to Skiathos island, taxi to the harbour of Skiathos (5 minutes) then boat or hydrofoil to Skopelos – Alonissos. There is no need to book a taxi in Skiathos island. If you want to go to Skopelos or Alonissos you must find a flight arriving early on Skiathos island and departing late in order to feel more lucky :O)
There is also water taxi service from Skiathos island to Skopelos by appointment. 150,00 up to 4 persons and every extra person +20,00 euro. 20-25 minutes to Skopelos (Glossa-Elios-Adrina-Panormos). We can arrange also the taxi from the airport to his water taxis. Taxi costs 12,00 euro by appointment, 8,00-9,00 euro without appointment.
c) For travel in July and August we strongly recommend that you book round trip tickets well in advance. Reservations changes incur a fee.
d) Skopelos island has two ports – Glossa (or Loutraki) & Skopelos Town. It is advised that you check with your accommodation provider which one serves you better.
The two ports have different ticket price.
e) There are daily transfers from Aghios Konstantinos and Volos to Skiathos – Skopelos – Alonissos.

In the case that you do not wish to purchase your tickets from downtown Athens,(which necessitates that you go downtown for your tickets, some days in advance of your departure), we suggest, that you contact the agencies located on the port of Ag. Constantinos for a reservation: Alkyon Travel, +30 2235031989 or Bilalis Travel, +30 2235031874. These agencies may contact the Athenian agencies, are arrange for your bus ticket to the port.

If you are travelling by car, you can make a reservation with the Ag. Constantinos agencies, and you may pick  your tickets up, as soon as you arrive there.

g) The secure way to go to Thessaloniki is through Volos port which there is daily correspondence from Skopelos.
