Located on the southwest corner of Skiathos, Plakes is a traditional picturesque neighborhood with great architecture. The stone covered alleys, the old houses, the small chapels, the local taverns the magical view make it a unique spot on this island. You can get there either by climping the steps at the end of the old port or by walking across the coast line on the left side from the main parking spot. Definately worth visiting for photography lovers, a romantic afternoon walk or a small expedition with the kids, this artistic place will fill you with an aura of peace and mystical beauty!   Photos by V.Peristeropoulou
