About Kastani
Kastani Beach sits on the southwest coast of Skopelos, a short drive from the main town of Skopelos (Chora) and just below the ruined castle of Kastro. The setting is appealing: a wide crescent of golden sand backed by low, tree-covered hills that keep the landscape green. The water is clear and typically moderate in wave action, making it pleasant for swimming. The beach is fully organised; rows of sunbeds and umbrellas cover most of the sand, and a lively beach bar serves drinks and snacks throughout the day. A small taverna perches on the hillside above, offering proper meals. Parking is roadside along the access road, filling up quickly in high season. Kastani gained fame from the film *Mamma Mia!* and draws a sociable crowd, especially in July and August. Families and groups of friends come for the easy swimming and the party atmosphere at the bar.
