    2 hours distance from Piraeus by hydrofoil, 30' from Ermioni and 20' from Metochi. Located in the heart of the Argo - Saronic Gulf. It’s the perfect option for a quick getaway! In Hydra, you won’t see any cars! Everyone uses their foot, boats or donkeys to get around the island. The cars ban, along with the elegant stone mansions of the island, create a charming atmosphere and make the island one of the most serene destinations near Athens.
    Top Beaches:
    Number one: Hydroneta. In a walking distance from Hydra town. Rocky, blue & luxurious! A rocky swimming area with cemented decks and profound blue waters. It's a popular place, playing relaxing ambient music 20 hours a day and offering magnificent view over the sea.
    Number two: Vlychos beach. 2 km west of Hydra Town. Reached by taxi boat or on foot. A small pebbled beach with crystal-clear waters. A few taverns are available near the beach.
    Number three: Mandraki beach. 2 km east of Hydra Town. A lovely beach, organized with sunbeds, umbrellas and watersports centres. Can be reached by a 25' walking or by a taxi boat.
    Number four: kaminia beach. 1 km west of Hydra Town. Kaminia is a small pebbled beach. Some delicious fish taverns and cafe line the coast. Ideal place for families.
    Number five: Bisti beach. On the western side of the island. a tiny cove popular for water sport activities such as kayak, snorkel and scuba dive.

    Number two: churches & monasteries. The Church of the Assumption of the Virgin is located in the port of Hydra. Its main characteristic is the tall bell tower of 1643 made of pure marble from Tinos. The church hosts a small ecclesiastical museum today. The monasteries of Agia Triada, Agia Matrona & Agios Nikolaos near Mandraki are samples of fine christian art and eastern tradition.

    and glamorous vibes…

    Expert guide to Hydra
    A whaleback ridge looming from the sea, Hydra shot to fame in 1956 as the location for A Girl in Black, directed by Michael Cacoyannis, with an extra filip in 1957 for hosting Boy on a Dolphin, starring Sophia Loren.
    Soon various foreign personalities (including Leonard Cohen) bought and restored property here, joining prominent Greeks who had long appreciated the island’s charms. Sumptuous mansions and humbler vernacular homes arrayed amphitheatrically around the marble-quayed harbour, when Hydriot seafaring prowess brought great wealth. Despite its high-profile reputation, and the mid-day arrival of “One-Day Saronic Cruises”, the island remains endearingly time-warped: as a listed architectural reserve, all new construction is banned, and the town remains blissfully free of motor vehicles except for two small fire trucks and a few miniature rubbish trucks - photogenic donkeys do most haulage.

    I had a wonderful holiday there in2017. Loved everything about it including the fact that it cemented my relationship with my lady friend. Leonard Cohen actually purchased a house there in 1960 and it now belongs to his son. Less well known is the fact that a pair of Australian writers moved to Hydra in 1954 and stayed for 10 years. George Johnson and Charmian Clift were celebrated writers in the 50s and 60s. The film "Love Island" was filmed on Hydra and is full of memories for me.

      You don't really need a travel agency, just take a flight with Aegean or Lufthansa to Athens, then the metro from airport to Piraeus port and buy the tickets to Hydra island from local travel ticket stores.
      The weather in the Greek islands is warm until early November 🏖️🇬🇷😊
