Skopelos can only be reached by sea, from Volos or Agios Konstantinos on the mainland (about 4.5 hours by ferry, half by hydrofoil). The island is also regularly connected to Skiathos, Alonissos, and Thessaloniki.
For tickets, visit the Hellenic Seaways website or directferries.com.
Skopelos does not have an airport. The closest is on Skiathos, with domestic flights from Athens and seasonal direct connections from many European cities. From Skiathos, continue by ferry to Skopelos.
Sea connections are more frequent during the summer season; always check availability if travelling in other periods.
