Ouzerie Anatoli

Top choice in Skopelos


Wait until at least 11pm, then head to this breezy outdoor ouzerie (place that serves ouzo and light snacks), high above the north corner of the waterfront atop the kastro, to hear traditional rembetika (blues songs) sung by Georgos Xindaris, Skopelos’ own exponent of the Greek blues and a bouzouki master.
