A mini paradise

Considered as a much more upmarket resort to some of its neighbours, the tiny village of Kanapitsa can’t exactly open its doors to the masses. If you’re looking for wild nights and busy days then you will need to move a little further down the road. For those who are hoping for a relaxed retreat, stunning beaches and a little bit of peace and quiet – a holiday in Kanapitsa is simply perfect. Tucked neatly into the Kanapitsa peninsula, what the village may lack in tourist attractions, it certainly makes up for in spa-like sanctuaries and unique tavernas. A Kanapitsa holiday completely breaks away from some of the rowdy stereotypes that can be associated with the Greek islands.

Spend your days and nights on the sand

While some of Kanapitsa is based amongst the pine-clad hillsides, the majority is focused on the beach. With so many long stretches of beautiful sand to choose from, it’s no surprise that the shorefront is Kanapitsa’s biggest selling point. Both of Kanapitsa’s main beaches are proud owners of Blue Flags ensuring that, whether you’re using the water to snorkel or jet ski, it will always be safe and clean. The shore is lined with water sport centres and tavernas, providing the facilities for sun seekers to spend days on the sand and night owls to watch the sunset over the beach with a cool beer.

There is regular transport taking visitors from Kanapitsa to [Skiathos Town](http://holidays.lastminute.com/greece/skiathos/skiathos-town-holidays.htm), giving those who are itching for a little background noise, a chance to experience somewhere a bit livelier.

The streets here are full of colour and pulsing music at night and every taverna, restaurant and ouzeri will try to entice you into its authentic atmosphere.
