Taverna Agios Petros


Just 1km inland (south) from Agios Petros beach, in far north Skyros, this outstanding and charmingly rustic terrace taverna rests among vines and a grove of pines, and serves exclusively its own produce, meat and cheese.

The family also runs popular Amaltheia in Skyros Town, with the same farm-to-table ethos.
