Your Sporades Islands Yacht Charters | Gastronomy

The local cuisine of the Sporades islands (Skyros, Alonissos, Skiathos, Skopelos) is characterized by its simplicity and intense flavors resulting from the fresh aromatic herbs, olive oil, and fresh meat. In addition, the islands are well-known for their dairy products, thyme honey, and spoon sweets.

Since the Sporades are islands, they're surrounded by waters teeming with delicious seafood. Besides fish, there are lobster, shrimp, crab, squid, and octopus, to name a few. If you enjoy seafood recipes, you will appreciate a delicious meal in the waterfront taverns of Alonissos island.
