My first solo trip was to Skiathos in Greece, I can't recommend it enough. It's a beautiful island and I felt really safe there as a solo female traveler. Besides, it's not too expensive there.

I had a great time! Touristy but not overwhelming. More expensive than the other Sporades islands but with loads to see. I recommend a tour with a boat to the outside of the island, a visit to the Monastery and you can definitely get cheaper food if you look. Always more expensive options but everywhere I ate it was great. Good public transport if you don't want to rent something. Very clean waters and lovely people!!

I have been to many Greek islands and my absolute favorite is Skiathos. It's a beautiful place, people are extremely nice, and moreover, the island was not crowded. The local nightlife is also at a very good level. I definitely recommend it 100%.
