Kastani Beach is one of the most popular beaches on Skopelos Island, Greece. It is known for its clear turquoise waters, soft sand, and lush green hills surrounding the bay. The beach also gained fame as a filming location for the movie Mamma Mia

What to See & Do

  • 🏊 Swim in the crystal-clear turquoise waters that stay calm and inviting 🌊
  • 🍹 Lounge at the trendy beach bar with a signature cocktail and upbeat music 🎶
  • 📸 Take photos at the spots where “Lay All Your Love on Me” was filmed 🎬

Travel Tips

  • ⏰ Arrive before 10:30 AM during July and August to secure a front-row sunbed 🏖️
