“It is the quintessential Greek island with ideal proportions that is perfectly identified with the movie “Mamma Mia””
Its lacy coastline Skopelos and “Mamma Mia” star in the annual list announced by the website Goodhousekeeping.com of the ten places in Europe that will stand out in 2025 for their dream beaches.
The established entertainment medium that appeals to millions of travelers from M. Britain and USA ranks Skopelos in 4th place stating that “it is the quintessentially Greek island with ideal proportions that is perfectly identified with the movie “Mamma Mia”. Winding cobbled streets with white and blue houses, endless views of the sparkling Aegean, seaside taverns with fresh fish and some of the most beautiful beaches in Greece are the ingredients for a perfect holiday in Skopelos. The sandy beaches and secluded rocky coves are surrounded by countless pine trees that seem to “touch” the sea.”
In addition to Greece, Goodhousekeeping.com’s list is completed with destinations from Italy, Croatia, Morocco, Portugal, Malta and Montenegro.
“The concern of the Municipality of Skopelos is the visibility in the international markets through original actions. For this reason, we create the conditions for highlighting known and unknown aspects of the destination throughout the year and implement a program with original actions that revives the connection of the destination with Mamma Mia” said the President of the Tourism Committee of Municipality of Skopelos, Eva Karamesini.
Recently the Municipality of Skopelos joined forces with Mamma Mia The Party, the popular culinary and musical dance show that has been going on for several years in London, with the aim of promoting Skopelos on multiple levels. Through a large production, island cobblestones, picturesque alleys and squares that “reminisce” and refer to Skopelos are represented, while the relevant promotional and informational material of the show mentions the destination. Combined with the Greek cuisine and the award-winning casting, the action has led to a lot of publicity in international media highlighting both ‘Mamma Mia’, the show and the destination. In fact, Dimos and Mamma Mia The Party organized a large online competition that had 280,000 views and reached over 220,000 social media accounts.
