Arkos is a petite island located just a 10-minute boat ride from Skiathos port. It's characterized by a serene beach with available sunbeds and umbrellas, and is home to the family-operated Arkos taverna, which shares the island's name. The island is a popular destination for yacht users and those seeking a peaceful escape from the bustle of Skiathos Town. The taverna is renowned for its authentic Greek cuisine and welcoming atmosphere. The island also features a church, adding to its tranquil charm.
Arkos is ideal for couples, small groups of friends, and families seeking a relaxing escape from the crowds. It's particularly well-suited for those who enjoy swimming, sunbathing, and authentic Greek cuisine. Yacht owners and boat enthusiasts will especially appreciate the island's accessibility.
May, June, September, and early October offer pleasant weather and fewer crowds than July and August.
Weekdays are generally less crowded than weekends. Late afternoon is recommended for the best sunset views. Mid-morning to early afternoon is ideal for swimming and sunbathing.
Accessibility is limited due to the island's natural terrain and the fact that it is only accessible by boat. The beach is relatively small and may have limited space for maneuvering. The taverna has outdoor seating, but the ground may be uneven. Individuals with mobility issues may find it challenging to navigate the island.
Arkos is generally considered family-friendly, with a calm beach and a relaxed atmosphere. However, there are no dedicated children's play areas or facilities. Parents should supervise children closely, especially near the water. The taverna offers a menu with options that appeal to children.
Pets are generally not allowed on the island or in the taverna.
The only food facility on the island is the Arkos taverna, which serves traditional Greek cuisine. Bread is typically provided with meals. There are no other cafes or shops on the island. Restroom facilities are available at the taverna.
