We had visited Skopelos before, so we actually knew the island. Skopelos is one of my favoutire Greek islands, it combines everything and all kind of styles: not cosmopolitan and not isolate either, with great beaches and sights, lounge cafes and loud bars, in a word it is adorable. Glossa is a lovely vllage to stay and most ferries that come on the island dock there. We stayed both times in Maria's, some lovely apartments a couple of km outside Glossa but with nice view from the balcony and a small beach in front. For other beaches, I suggest Loutraki and Agnontas. Stafilos is also very picturesque but in the afternoon it gets very crowded. If you are driving, pay attention to the roads. Skopelos is mountainous and some road parts are difficult, especially for new drivers. For food, all taverns are good so you will more probably choose taverns depending on the view. Prefer small taverns in hills above the villages, they always have the best view to the green hillsides and the blue sea. My kids, 12 and 14, loved Skopelos and I was feeling safe to let them play or walk in the streets alone. This island makes me feel so good!
