Yacht Charter Greece- Skyros
Hard to get to but worth the trip they say. Very Green with
a pine forest that covers much of the island, nice beaches and
some interesting traditional villages and customs. Skyros is
famous for their carnival celebration and the goat dancers which
may date back to the ancient cult of Dionysios.
The end of Carnival, or Apokreas, like Mardi Gras marks the
beginning of lent so if you want to visit Skyros, figure out
when Orthodox Easter takes place, count back 40 days and then go
there the week before that. The ferry to Skyros leaves from Kimi
in Evia.
This is one of the most difficult islands to travel to thought
that does not keep people from coming. The island is also home
to the Skyros Institute of Wholistic Studies which offfers
programs in alternative therapies, yoga and even windsurfing.
Skros is also the gravesite of the English poet Rupert Brooke
who died in 1915 on a ship bound for Gallipoli off the coast of
Skyros. |
