Trip around Skiathos: Tsougkria island

Today we're finishing our small tour around the island Skiathos by boat, as this is our last stop! Although I stayed only 4 days on this island, it certainly seems like I stayed one month if judging by the number of photos and posts I've prepared for you!:D Organization is a miracle, but let's go back to our trip...
Tsougkria island is an abandoned island, which administratively belongs to Skiathos, and therefore to the Sporades. Lush greenery, wild untouched nature, beautiful beaches, crystal clear turquoise water are the main "culprits" why Tsougkria (although without inhabitants) is extremely popular during the summer season! It has one small beach bar covered with reeds, where you can find refreshment from the heat and regain strength after long swimming and sunbathing, 'cause honestly speaking- these are the only options on the island! And quite sufficient!

Danas zavrsavamo nasu malu turu oko ostrva Skijatos brodicem, a ovo je nasa poslednja stanica! Iako sam na ostrvu boravila samo 4 dana, sigurno izgleda kao da sam ostala mesec dana, ako je sudeci prema broju fotografija i postova koje sam spremila za vas!:D Organizacija je cudo, ali hajde da se sada vratimo nasem putovanju...

Tsougkria ostrvo je napusteno ostrvo koje administrativno pripada Skijatosu, a samim tim i Sporadima. Bogatstvo zelenila, divlja netaknuta priroda, lepe plaze, kristalno cista tirkizna voda, glavni su "krivci" zasto je Tsougkria (iako bez stanovnika) izuzetno posecena tokom letnje sezone! Na plazi postoji jedan manji bar natkriven trskom, gde mozete pronaci osvezenje od vrucina i povratiti snagu nakon dugotrajnog kupanja i suncanja, jer ako cemo iskreno- to su jedine opcije na ovom ostrvu! I sasvim dovoljne!

Trip around Skiathos: Kastro beach

Kastro beach is located below the medieval fortress with the same name, which I talked about yesterday. The beach is relatively small, both sandy and rocky, with scattered stone slabs that give it a special charm because they completely fit into the natural environment. It is located some 13km north of the town of Skiathos, and the easiest is to reach it by boat.

And while I was climbing dusty and steep path to the fortress Kastro- smart people were taking bath on this beach!:) But if I haven't followed my "adventurous instinct" you wouldn't see most of these pictures!;)

Kastro plaza se nalazi ispod srednjovekovnog utvrdjenja sa istim imenom, o kojem sam vam juce pricala. Plaza je relativno male povrsine, podjednako pescana i sljunkovita, sa razbacanim kamenim plocama koje joj daju poseban sarm jer se u potpunosti uklapaju u prirodan ambijent. Nalazi se nekih 13km severno od grada Skijatosa, a do nje je najlakse doci brodicem.

I dok sam se ja pentrala prasnjavim i strmim putem do tvrdjave Kastro, na ovoj plazi se pametan narod kupao!:) Ali da nisam poslusala svoj "avanturisticki instinkt"- vi ne biste videli vecinu ovih slika!;)

Trip around Skiathos: Old village of Kastro

It's time to continue our journey around the island of Skiathos by boat... Our next stop is Kastro, fortress located in the north of the island, dating from the middle of 14th century. Due to the constant pirate attacks, the population was forced to build a safe place to live, so the people of Skiathos used the hill that is a natural fortress. Until the middle of 15th century, Kastro was under Byzantine rule, then under Venetian, and after that the Turks ruled here until 1821. From 1830 it officially belongs to Greece.

Vreme je da nastavimo nase putovanje oko ostrva Skijatos brodicem... Nasa naredna stanica je Kastro, utvrdjenje koje se nalazi na severu ostrva i datira iz sredine 14-og veka. Zbog stalnih napada pirata, stanovnistvo Skijatosa je bilo prinudjeno da sagradi sebi sigurno mesto za zivot, i to na brdu koje je prirodno utvrdjenje. Sve do sredine 15-og veka Kastro je bio pod vizantijskom upravom, zatim pod mletackom da bi nakon toga Turci vladali ovde sve do 1821. Od 1830 zvanicno je pripao Grckoj.
