Skiathos old harbour

In the story · Mamma Mia! (the fathers miss the ferry)

To reach Kalokairi, the made-up island of the film, Harry (Colin Firth) and Sam, two of Sophie's possible fathers, arrive at this harbour in identical taxis and miss the ferry; Bill (Stellan Skarsgård), the third, offers them a ride on his sailing boat. The seafront shops were made to look older for the film. A real filming location.
