Discover more about Agnontas Port

Agnontas Port is a delightful harbor nestled on the southwestern coast of Skopelos island, approximately 8 kilometers from Skopelos Town. This idyllic location provides a serene and authentic Greek experience, far from the bustling tourist crowds. The port is named in honor of Agnontas (or Agnon), an Olympic champion from ancient Peparethos (the ancient name of Skopelos) who won a race in 568 BC. Legend says that upon his victorious return, he disembarked here, and the port was named in his honor. Today, Agnontas serves as an alternative port for ferries and hydrofoils, especially when strong winds make it difficult to dock at the main ports of Skopelos Town and Glossa. The harbor's sheltered bay provides a safe haven for fishing boats, yachts, and passenger vessels. Visitors can enjoy the sight of colorful fishing boats bringing in their daily catch, which is then served fresh in the local taverns. The village itself is small and inviting, with a handful of traditional fish taverns lining the waterfront. These taverns are renowned for their fresh seafood and authentic Greek cuisine, offering a delightful culinary experience with stunning sea views. The surrounding landscape is lush with pine trees, adding to the area's natural beauty and creating a tranquil atmosphere. Agnontas is particularly known for its breathtaking sunsets, making it a popular spot for evening dining. While Agnontas maintains its traditional fishing village character, it also offers modern amenities for tourists, including hotels, apartments, and studios. The port is easily accessible by car or bus from Skopelos Town, making it a convenient destination for a day trip or a longer stay. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat, a taste of authentic Greek cuisine, or a picturesque sunset view, Agnontas Port provides a memorable experience on the beautiful island of Skopelos.
