  A beautiful serene place

  A beautiful serene place. I visited in the early morning and although not particularly religious personally I felt a definitive calmness and a sense of peace within. It is a delightful place to visit in magnificent scenery and a cooling environment high up in the mountains.
  In the museum you will find the Loom and remnants of the weaving of the first Greek flag along with a fascinating set of artifacts connected to the history of the island and the people of Skiathos.
  Not least after your visit there is a lovely cafe a few yards from the monastery where I enjoyed the views out to sea whilst trying some locally produced honey toast and coffee.
  A morning to remember during the cold days of winter in England.

  Monastery visit

  Visited and was moved to tears by the monks singing and chanting . A peaceful haven close to heaven on earth , I have been sick this year and very frightened but felt an inner calm restored in my soul . Many thank you to you all beyond words , how can you describe a place of sanctuary and hope as any other place . Thank you to the Monastery for allowing us into your inner sanctum and to the people of Skiathos for a wonderful stay and welcome , May God bless you . We will always return to such friendly smiling people .
