Staphylos

{{Unreferenced|date=January 2008}} {{for|the son of Goddess Ariadne|Staphylus}} '''Stafylos''' ({{lang-el|Στάφυλος}}) is a village on the island [[Skopelos]], [[Sporades]] islands, [[Greece]]. It is located 4 kilometres south of the main town [[Skopelos (town)]]. The area of Stafylos includes a [[bay]] and [[hotels]] and is accessible by local bus, private car or on foot. Because of its beauty and proximity to the town, the beach at Staphylos is one of the most popular on the island and so it is often very crowded. This bay owes its name to the [[Minoan civilization|Minoan]] King [[Staphylus]] whose ships are supposed to have landed in this cove. A [[bronze age]] tomb was discovered on the point of land between Stafylos beach and Velanio. {{Skopelos}} {{Sporades}} {{coord missing|Greece}}
