Skopelos
People claim Skopelos is the greenest island in the Aegean and they may be right. A nature lover's paradise, Skopelos is home to a great many forms of wildlife due to its extensive forests and beautiful coastline, including the monk seal or what the Greeks call Monachos-Monachos. The island, once a Cretan colony, has a number of archaeological sites plus some 360 churches, monasteries and convents. Though not as cosmopolitan as nearby Skiathos, there is plenty of nightlife and the islanders take great pride in their cooking. If Skiathos sounds too much like Mykonos and you are looking for something a little quieter but no less beautiful come here. Yes, this is the island that Mamma Mia was filmed which has made it a sort of Mecca for fans of the movie but that is not a good reason to avoid it and you have to admit it was a good movie (yes I cried during the song Dancing Queen).
