What is the Kastro of Skopelos?

Where can we have a drink before dinner?

At Vrachos, the cocktail bar run by the same family, 108 steps above Skopelos harbour, with a view over the Aegean and the lights of the town. It has been open since 1992 (vrachosbar.com). From there, three to four minutes on foot through the lanes bring you to Castello, beneath the floodlit Venetian castle.
