How to Get to Skopelos Island
You can get to the Island by Ferry, there are regular scheduled departures from the mainland, and there are a few ports in the way at the closest Islands.
The closest Airport is located in Skiathos, that is part of the Sporades Islands, and it is between the ports in the mainland like Volos and Agios Constantinos.
There is an International Airport in Volos, besides that, the closest is located at Athens, the Venizelou International Airport.
Skopelos might be a little more difficult to reach than other Greek islands that are more well-known or “popular.”
Throughout the summer, a daily boat service connects the harbors of Volos, Thessalonica, Skiathos, and Skopelos with Skopelos. There are also flying dolphin hydrofoil shuttles available.
To make your trip to and from the port of Volos more convenient, there is a passenger bus service that departs from the heart of Athens.
Please be aware that the timetables for the summer catamarans and ferries are normally released and finalized around April.
You might alternatively make arrangements for a taxi or minivan to take you from Eleftherios Venizelos Airport in Athens to the harbors of Agios Konstantinos or Volos.
Numerous daily trips leave from Volos and stop in Skiathos, Glossa, and/or Skopelos (depending on the vessel).
Travel time by ferry is approximately 5 to 6 hours, by catamaran is 4 hours, and by flying dolphin.
