About Skiathos Island National Airport
Overview
Skiathos Island National Airport serves the Sporades island group in Greece, providing critical transportation infrastructure for this Aegean maritime region. Located at 39.177101, 23.503700 with an elevation of 54 feet MSL, the airport supports regional and tourism-related air traffic with its 5,341-foot asphalt runway designated 01/19.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at LGSK are predominantly favorable for visual flight, with 86.1% of observations reporting VFR conditions. The prevailing northerly winds average 6.8 knots, with occasional gusts up to 30 knots, and 19.7% of observations showing calm conditions. Temperature ranges from 4°C to 29°C, with a comfortable average of 19°C, supporting consistent flying conditions.
Notable Features
The airport's single runway (01/19) experiences highly favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility. Crosswinds are minimal, averaging just 2.8 knots. The island's coastal location and moderate elevation suggest potential for thermal and maritime wind interactions that pilots should anticipate during approach and departure.
Approach Considerations
Optimal VFR months are September, October, and November, offering the most stable flying conditions. With consistently high visibility (average 10 statute miles) and negligible fog occurrences, pilots can expect reliable visual reference during approaches. The runway's orientation and wind characteristics generally support straightforward landing and takeoff procedures.
