Getting Around
The hill top village is 10 minutes bus ride from Patitiri with 4 beaches in easy walking distance. Alonnisos may be explored on foot or by bus, taxi or taxiboat from the harbour at Patitiri. Some visitors choose to explore the more remote beaches by hiring a scooter or car. If you think you may wish to do this - you must ensure that you bring your driving licence with you and that your holiday insurance provides adequate cover.
You can see more of the island in this video from YouTube:
The clear turquoise
water around Alonnisos was the first in Greece to be established as a marine
park – so is protected to preserve the habitat of the Mediterranean
Monk Seal and other rare species to be found in this region. This makes
for wonderful swimming and snorkelling. Scuba diving is also available on
the island, as are boat trips to other small islands.
