The Town And Bourtzi

Manorial Welcome

Entering the port you are greeted by Bourzi: a pine-covered islet that houses the ruins of the Venetian fortress, built there since the 13th century.

In front of you, the Town of Skiathos, which spreads amphitheatrically with the crimson roofs of the houses, looks as if it wants to break away from the sea.

Skiathos by Alexandros Papadiamantis

The “Saint of Greek letters”, one of the most important Greek writers, came from here. The house-museum of Papadiamantis is one of the most important attractions of the island and you will find it in Skiathos Town. And in his short stories you will find another island:
the authentic Skiathos of the 19th century.
