Skyros, Greece

Skyros, like the other Sporades Islands, is ery green with a pine forest that covers much of the island, nice beaches and some interesting traditional villages and customs. Skyros is famous for their carnival celebration and the goat dancers which may date back to the ancient cult of Dionysios. The end of Carnival, or Apokreas, like Mardi Gras marks the beginning of lent so if you want to visit Skyros, figure out when Orthodox Easter takes place, count back 40 days and then go there the week before that. The ferry to Skyros leaves from Kimi in Evia and not from Agios Konstantinos or Volos likem the other islands of the chain. This is one of the most difficult islands to travel to though that does not keep people from coming. The island is also home to the Skyros Institute of Holistic Studies which offers programs in alternative therapies, yoga and even windsurfing. Skyros is the grave site of the English poet Rupert Brooke who died of the coast of Skyros in 1915 on a ship bound for Gallipoli. For more information see
