💡 Tips

Enjoy the sunset directly from the beach; Panormos is one of the best spots on Skopelos for evening colors.
Use the island bus that stops right in the village, providing a convenient link to Skopelos Town.
The bay is deep and sheltered from the wind, making the water exceptionally calm and well-suited for swimming.
Bring water shoes because the beach is pebbly and the water can get deep quite quickly.
