From the first moment you step foot, you feel like you are in the Caribbean. White sand beaches and sand dunes, exotic corners and tropical colors.

Haanity flies over the sandbar on the islet of Tsougria near Skiathos. Local legend has it that the Beatles visited Skiathos in the 1960s and persistently tried to buy Tsougria, the islet opposite Skiathos town with its lovely beach and the small church of Agios Floros perched on the rock.

The paradise on earth has not yet been sold. It is covered by dense vegetation, pine trees and has many beautiful beaches, making it a popular destination during the summer months.

You will arrive by boat from the port of Skiathos or Achladia, while on the way the captain will tell you that in the early 1960s, the shipowner Thomas Epiphaniadis commissioned the architect Alexandros Vogiatzis to build a chapel in memory of Saints Floros and Lavros, in the then ownership of the island.
