Question
on Skopelos island are they any water sports or diving centers
Answer
For those that love personal scuba diving (with breathing gear), unfortunately this is forbidden by law on Skopelos but generally on Alonnissos and the Northern Sporades, as there is a multitude of antiquities and ancient shipwrecks in these areas. On Skopelos they are available organised scuba diving schools and diving centres ( more details on Skopelos Activities ). Till then, I do not believe that any person would want to risk being charged with antiquities smuggling, following the path of many in the past who were led to justice. So, yes to diving, but avoid organize scuba diving. Whatever the case, you can contact the Skopelos port authority at 00302424022180 for any developments in the matter that I am not aware of.
Water sports on the island are available at the beach Milia and at Adrina hotel. Additionally there is the possibility of renting jet skis, boats and bicycles. For more information check the section Activities on Skopelos.
Question
How many volts is the voltage in Greece
Answer
The voltage of the electricity is 220 V. It would be good if you travel from abroad and from places where you have another voltage, to have the voltage converters with you. On the island you will definitely find similar devices as there are shops with electrical items (as the island has organized businesses around the field of construction and equipment)
