Skiathos Reviews -General

I had heard that Skiathos was a superb island, the best of the group of islands called the Sporades?Well, I don't totally agree! I found Skopelos and Alonissos much relaxing, much beautiful and much authentic that noisy and extremely touristy Skiathos. It is a beautiful place with some of the best beaches of Greece but its inhabitants and the grow of tourism has turned it in a ?fake? place, too organised, too expensive (comparing to other Greek islands), too build up, as if it was make only for tourists. The only parts of Skiathos I found that had kept a bit of there character and authenticity are its old port, some parts in the city (when you get lost in its streets) and a very few beaches.
