Steni Vala & Kalamakia in Alonissos

The former fishing village of Steni Vala is my favourite village on Alonissos, mostly thanks to the cosy tavernas along the seafront. Usually here is a restful calmness, along the quay the fishing boats crowds with sail boats, sometimes a few fishermen sits and mends their nets or gutting fish, the village's mascots, some ducks, are quacking and wander about and begging for bread. A very pleasant place (unless an excursion boat full of tourists visiting the place). From Steni Vala it is about 10 kilometers from Patitiri, and approximately 5 km to Agios Dimitrios beach.

My favourite taverna Fanari is the second furthest out on the pier: great location, near the water, good food, cold beer and super nice owners. If you follow the path that starts by the taverna you will soon reach a long and fairly decent pebbly beach called Glyfa. There is also a small beach in Steni Vala, but it is not much to cheer about.

Kalamakia, a few kilometres north of Steni Vala, can not be described as a village, a few houses along a quay with several tavernas. The reason why there are so many tavernas is because of the excursion boats from Skopelos and Skiathos, they often berth here so the guests can eat lunch.

ACCOMMODATION IN STENI VALA

Unfortunately, I have never lived in Steni Vala, but I hope to someday. It must be amazing to be there in the mornings and evenings. If I were to live here, I would probably choose Sossinola, which looks absolutely wonderful.
