Skopelos, Greece - Agios Ioannis Beach - AtlasVisual
Skopelos Video Map:
Agios Ioannis beach is located 30 km northwest of Skopelos Town. The beach is on the northern coast of the island, close to the village of Glossa. It is surrounded by beautiful rock formations -- in and out of the water. Usually, it doesn't get very crowded and has no tourist facilities on the beach. There is the church of Agios Ioannis perched high on the rocks overlooking the small cove. You can climb 105 steps up to the church and have an incredible view of the coast, even seeing nearby Alonissos island. Scenes of the Hollywood movie Mamma Mia! (2007) were filmed at the church above the beach.

Skopelos, Agios Ioannis, Kastri
Άγιος Ιωάννης - Καστρί: Το παρεκκλήσι του Αγίου Ιωάννη βρίσκεται σ' ένα βράχο ύψους 100 μέτρων, περικυκλωμένο από θάλασσα. Σε αυτό το ειδυλλιακό σκηνικό, καταφθάνει η γαμήλια συνοδεία στην ταινία Mamma Mia, ενώ η Donna με τον Sam ερμηνεύουν το συγκλονιστικό The Winner Takes it All. Το εκκλησάκι βρίσκεται σε απόσταση περίπου 35 χιλιομέτρων από τη Χώρα Σκοπέλου, οδηγείτε προς Γλώσσα και λίγο πριν συναντήσετε τα πρώτα σπίτια στη Γλώσσα βλέπετε σχετική ταμπέλα Μοναστήρι Αγίου Ιωάννη και στρίβεται δεξιά. Ο δρόμος έχει άσφαλτο και είναι σε καλή κατάσταση, ωστόσο έχει πολλές στροφές κλπ και απαιτεί ιδιαίτερη προσοχή.
Agios Ioannis, Kastri, Skopelos: The church of Agios Ioannis Kastri on Skopelos, where scenes of Mamma Mia were filmed: The small church of Agios Ioannis is located in the region of Kastri, about 7 km east of Glossa, northern Skopelos. This is a lovely church that used to be the katholicon of a monastery in the past. It stands on top of a rock and provides amazing view to the coasts of Skopelos and to Alonissos.
Its name actually means Sain John on the Castle, depicting that probably there was a small castle there in the past to protect the islans from pirates and enemy invasions.
This small church became famous where scenes of the Hollywood movie Mamma Mia (2007) were filmed there. In fact, the wedding scenes were shot in that church. The impressive rock is linked to the island with a narrow path and people have to climb 110 stairs to get to the top. A small beach is located above the rock and it gets pretty crowded in summer. The interior of the church has beautiful icons and old ecclesiastical items.

Agios Ioannis, Mama Mia, Skopelos
Secluded Skopelos -Mama Mia Highlights with optional visit to Aghios Ioannis Church
This is an ideal trip for all the family to visit places only accessible by boat, far away from the crowds, on the beautiful south part of Skopelos island.
We set sail aboard our boat Kalypso at 10:00am from Skiathos port, cruising on a north-easterly course for the neighboring island of Skopelos. Light refreshments are served on board.
During the sail the guests will have the chance to see and take pictures from this very green side of the island. Kastani is the beautiful sandy beach on the islands’ west side, where “Mama Mia” was filmed in 2007 and our first stop of the day. A fantastic chance for the guests to swim, sunbathe and take photos on the “Mamma Mia” beach.
From Kastani it’s just a 25 minutes hop to the near and beautiful port of Panormos, in time for lunch at one of the beach tavernas. (Lunch is not included in the price).
Of course there is going to be plenty of time available for everyone to relax under the sun or have his drinks during the 2 hour stay and an optional visit to the 'Mamma Mia Church' at Agios Ionnis is available (supplement)
The Kalypso sets sail for the last destination of the day and maybe the most beautiful beach in Skopelos called Milia, just the ideal place to conclude the day.
Once back on board you will enjoy the leisurely cruise back to Skiathos port. The estimated time of return is 17.00.
Snack-bar and toilets are available on board. A tour-leader will be escorting the excursion.

AGIOS IOANNIS, SKOPELOS
One must walk 198 steps that are carved into the rock wall to reach the 100 altitude meters up to the chapel of Agios Ioannis. The rock and the small church are most famous from the wedding scenes in the movie Mamma Mia.
From the top of the cliff there is a great view. At the foot of the cliff there is a small beach where it is possible to swim after the strabs.
En må gå opp 198 trappetrinn som er hugget inn i klippeveggen for å komme de 100 høydemeterene opp til kapellet Agios Ioannis. Klippen og den lille kirken er mest kjent fra bryllupsscenene i filme Mamma Mia.
Fra toppen av klippen er det en fantastisk utsikt. Ved foten av klippen er det en liten strand der det er mulig å bade etter strabasene.

O Αη Γιάννης (Καστρί) από ψηλά / Γλώσσα Σκοπέλου 2018 - SKOPELOS GREECE
Το εκκλησάκι του Αη Γιάννη στο Καστρί βρίσκεται στην κορυφή ενός βράχου ύψους 100 μ. που ξεπροβάλλει μέσα από την θάλασσα, και χρειάζεται να ανεβείτε 200 σκαλοπατάκια σκαλισμένα πάνω στο βράχο. Η παράδοση λέει ότι κάποιος ψαράς από το χωριό της Γλώσσας, καθώς επέστρεφε ένα βράδυ, από το ψάρεμα διέκρινε στην κορυφή του βράχου ένα φως.
Το έβλεπε κάθε βράδυ, ώσπου εμφανίστηκε στον ύπνο του μια γυναίκα που του αποκάλυψε ότι στην κορυφή του βράχου υπάρχει μια εικόνα. Όταν ανέβηκε στην κορυφή βρήκε την εικόνα του Αγίου Ιωάννη του Προδρόμου. Πήρε την εικόνα, όμως, όπου και να τη μετέφερε, εκείνη ξαναγύριζε πίσω στην αρχική της θέση, εκεί που τελικά χτίστηκε το εκκλησάκι του, που γιορτάζει στις 29 Αυγούστου. Για να πάτε, λίγο πριν φτάσετε στην Γλώσσα, θα συναντήσετε στο δεξί σας χέρι, έναν δρόμο που οδηγεί στον Αη Γιάννη στο Καστρί.
ΜΑΜΑ ΜΙΑ (Ξένη ταινία)
Σκηνές πάνω στον βράχο ( το εκκλησάκι του γάμου είναι ο Άγιος Ιωάννης) τραβήχτηκαν από την πολύ επιτυχημένη ταινία του Hollywood και των Universal Studios με τα υπέροχα τραγούδια των ABBA και τους αγαπημένους και καταπληκτικούς ηθοποιούς, Mamma Μia!
Τα γυρίσματα έγιναν τον Αύγουστο και τον Σεπτέμβρη του 2007 (τα γυρίσματα διήρκεσαν 7 ημέρες με τις προετοιμασίες να διαρκούν για πάνω από 3 μήνες).
The chapel of Agios Ioannis in Kastri is situated on the top of a rock of 100 m high that rises through the sea and you need to climb 200 stairs carved on the rock. Tradition says that a fisherman from the village of Glossa, as he returned one night, from fishing saw a light at the top of the rock.
He watched it every night until a woman who revealed to him at the top of the rock showed a picture. When he climbed to the top, he found the icon of St. John the Baptist. She took the picture, however, wherever she was carrying it, she was back to her original position, where her chapel was finally built, celebrating August 29th. To go, just before you reach Glossa, you will meet on your right hand a road leading to Ai Giannis in Kastri.
Mamma Mia
Scenes on the rock (the chapel of the wedding is St. John) were taken from the very successful Hollywood and Universal Studios movies with the wonderful ABBA songs and the loved and amazing actors Mamma Mia!
The shootings took place in August and September 2007 (shootings lasted 7 days with preparations lasting more than 3 months).
