Skiathos Town, located on the southernmost tip of the island, boasts an idyllic windless harbor filled with white cottages and winding lanes. Historically, the town remained unchanged from the Classical to Byzantine periods until the population moved to Kastro in search of safety. The town was rebuilt after World War II bombings and has since become home to practically all of Skiathos' inhabitants, prospering with a cosmopolitan vibe.

Tourists will find a wide variety of restaurants catering to both Greek and foreign cuisine, shopping centers, and entertainment options for all ages. The main street of Papadiamanti and the seashore are popular areas for visitors. Unfortunately, the locals have abandoned farming and agriculture in favor of tourism resulting in fewer local products. However, visitors can enjoy numerous snack bars and upscale eateries, including a refurbished windmill housing an Italian or Greek restaurant which provides stunning views of the sea and island.
