The port of Skopelos Chora is the largest port of the island. It is a new, large and well-preserved port located in the middle of Chora, while the old port is located on the left side of the city, below the popular Panagitsa church of Pyrgos. All ships and catamarans naturally dock at the new port.

Skopelos is connected to mainland Greece with ferry routes from the ports of Volos, Evia (Mantoudi, Kymi), Agios Konstantinos and Thessaloniki.

There are also direct routes to Skiathos and Alonissos throughout the year.

Tourist agencies operate opposite the two ports. In both ports there are also cafes and taverns.

Taxi and local bus stops are located just to the left of the new port. A few meters further is the municipal parking lot of Skopelos Chora.
