Holidays in Achladies Bay

Location, location, location …Holidays in Achladies Bay have you basking by the sea on the side of the island that sees the sun first … in a perfectly peaceful spot for real relaxation … yet just 4km south of all the amenities of Skiathos Town. Fabulous.

Summer holidays to Achladies Bay are firmly focused on the beach. It's a lovely sweep of golden sand, gently shelving into the shallows and backed by a string of seaside tavernas. So it's a child-friendly place with bags of appeal for adults too. And if your favourite de-stress therapy is rather more energetic than chilling on a beach-bed, there are watersports from the bay and boats sail for day trips to the uninhabited isle of Tsougria or picture-postcard-pretty Skopelos ... both part of the scenic panorama from Achladies Bay. Holidays here are surrounded by serene sights – there's woodland greenery behind the resort to rival the blue of the water in front.

But when you're ready for something a little more lively, you don't have to go far. Tavernas and restaurants jostle for space on the seafront of Skiathos Town, and in the little labyrinth of inland streets you'll find an equally good choice of bars, more than enough mini-markets and gift shops, and several discos.

Back at the bay, the Hotel Esperides basks right beside the shore. This is a very popular place – though it's always worth checking for late deals. Last minute holidays to Achladies Bay could be just the wind-down break you're looking for.
