Holiday on the island of Skiathos GREECE! Any tips?

Me and my boyfriend have just booked two weeks in June to go to the Greek island of Skiathos. Just a few questions...

Has anyone ever been to Skiathos? If so do you have any advice? What is it like? Any good places/beaches to visit? Where to eat? How hot is it? How much spending money etc etc!

However if no one has been to Skiathos what is Greece like in general? In terms of food? Is it expensive?

The only sharks I found were in a Tex-Mex place. Basically, gyros pita at four times the price. Otherwise no more expensive really than anywhere else in Greece.

Fantastic beaches and loads of them. Old town is really nice. Airport is, um, interesting. Only one real road so car hire isn't too necessary and there's a great bus service, bus stops are numbered to make it really easy.

Take a cruise to Skopelos and Alonnisos, see the dolphins. Nice island, you'll have loads of fun.

Be aware of sharks - 1997 a German tourist disappeared.
