Whizzing past Skiathos town on the 10-minute boat ride to Arkos island is exhilarating and well worth it. This tiny island is very relaxed, with only 10 sun beds and one taverna. With your feet in the sand, enjoy the wonderful home-made dishes prepared by Mama Aktis, and the fresh catch of the day, all served by her lovely son Panagiotis. Her Beef in Red Sauce is the best on the island, her hand-cut french fries are golden and crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Make a day of it, have some tsipouro (clear Greek wine brandy similar to raki), watch the sun go down and get picked up by the speed boat that brought you earlier.
