Where Should I go: Skyros or Trogir?
Skyros
Nestled in the Aegean Sea, Skyros is the largest and least explored island of the Sporades archipelago. With its rugged landscapes, pristine beaches, and rich cultural heritage, Skyros offers a unique Greek island experience away from the crowds. While Skyros is generally more affordable than popular Greek islands, smart planning can help stretch your budget further. Local accommodations can be found for low prices if you look in the right places. To save on meals, opt for local tavernas away from the main tourist areas. Many offer daily specials that are both delicious and affordable. The area around Molos Beach is known for its reasonably priced eateries.
Trogir
Trogir is a town set within partially intact medieval walls on the central Adriatic coast of Croatia. Its preserved old town, known for its mix of Renaissance, Baroque, and Romanesque buildings, lies on a small island connected to the mainland and the island of Ciovo by bridges. The 13th-century Cathedral of St. Lawrence houses the Renaissance Chapel of St. John and offers sweeping views from its bell tower. On summer nights everyone gravitates to the wide seaside promenade, lined with bars, cafes and yachts - leaving the knotted maze-like marble streets gleaming under old-fashioned streetlights. In 1997 its profuse collection of Romanesque and Renaissance buildings earned it World Heritage status. While it's easily reached on a day trip from Split, Trogir also makes a good alternative base to the big city and a relaxing place to spend a few days.
