The trademark of the beach is its tall rock, at the top of which is clinging the chapel of St. John the Baptist, which celebrates on August 29th and a festival is held. To visit the chapel, you need to climb 100 steps, but it’s worth it because you’ll enjoy the view from above of the small secluded beaches with crystal clear waters, the lush green environment that “embraces” them, and a mesmerizing Aegean view that will be forever etched in your memory. It is no coincidence that the movie Mamma Mia! particularly highlighted this beautiful portrait, embedding it forever in the minds and hearts of those who wish to have a fairy-tale wedding!The legend says that a fisherman from Glossa, Skopelos, while returning home one night, saw a light at the top of the rock. This incident repeated for several nights until a woman came to his dream and told him that where he sees the light, there is an icon.
The fisherman climbed to the top of the rock and found the image of Saint John the Baptist. After a while, he built the chapel to protect the image.
