Skyros island - Magazia beach and Chora
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
For a first upload to AirVuz, brand-new contributor alexbiski brings us this drone video of the Greek island of Skyros. Skyros is the southernmost island of the Sporades, an archipelago of the western Aegean Sea. It's also the largest of these islands by land area, covering an area of just under 225 square km (around 80 square mi.). With a full-time population of about 3,000 residents, the island played an important role in Greek mythology: it was from here that Achilles set sail for Troy after being discovered by Odysseus.
