The main town has the feel of a charming fishing village. There is a pretty seafront area with a plethora of friendly tavernas. There are also a number of bars here for those who want to party all night. Because of this, the main town is probably not the choice for those who value peace and quiet, but it is certainly the place for great food and lively bars.
Hiring a car (4 wheel drive is an advantage) is a great idea to explore the lonely mountain villages and quiet beaches.
The Sporades Islands are great for sailing and Skiathos is no exception.
