5. Useful Tips (travel - parking)
a) Ferry/Hydrofoil (fast boat) travel companies every year announce their time schedules on the 1st of May. Then there is a change on these time schedules usually in the first 15 days of June. Many Skopelos' - Alonissos travellers book their accommodation and on May or June they book online their tickets.
b) Between 15/06 - 15/09 the best way to reach (Skiathos) Skopelos - Alonissos island is via scheduled flight to Skiathos island, taxi to the harbour of Skiathos (5 minutes) then boat or hydrofoil to Skopelos - Alonissos. There is no need to book a taxi in Skiathos island. If you want to go to Skopelos or Alonissos you must find a flight arriving early on Skiathos island and departing late in order to feel more lucky :O)
There is also water taxi service from Skiathos island to Skopelos by appointment. 120,00 up to 4 persons and every extra person +20,00 euro. 20-25 minutes to Skopelos (Glossa-Elios-Adrina-Panormos). Call Dimitris +30 6980200200 - +30 6976806938. Dimitris can arrange also the taxi from the airport to his water taxis. Taxi costs 12,00 euro by appointment, 8,00-9,00 euro without appointment.
c) For travel in July and August we strongly recommend that you book round trip tickets well in advance. Reservations changes incur a fee.
d) Skopelos island has two ports - Glossa (or Loutraki) & Skopelos Town. It is advised that you check with your accommodation provider which one serves you better.
The two ports have different ticket price.
e) There are daily transfers from Aghios Konstantinos and Volos to Skiathos - Skopelos - Alonissos.
f) If your trip originates in Athens, you can pick up your ticket from Alkyon Travel, 97 Akadimias Street, Kanigos Square. Over there you will take the bus to Aghios Konstantinos or Volos and then the correspondese hydrofoil/boat to the Sporades islands. Should you wish to avoid traveling to the centre of town to pick up your tickets, we recommend that you contact the agent at the port of Aghios Konstantinos (Bilalis Travel, +30 2235031874 or Alkyon Travel +30 2235031989) and make arrangements to receive your tickets right before embarkation. The road trip from Athens to Agios Constantinos is roughly 1 hour and 30 minutes by car.
g) The secure way to go to Thessaloniki is through Volos port which there is daily correspondence from Skopelos.
You can go from Thessaloniki to Volos or the opposite by renting a car from www.avis.gr . You will deliver the car to Volos and then when you depart you will deliver the car to Thessaloniki.
h) If you intent to take the train to Volos use only the Intercity train!!! Only the IC goes directly to your destination without many stops and train changes.
