Ideas for Hydra

Boating on Hydra

Hydra is a rocky, car-free island in the Saronic Gulf, where donkeys and water taxis take the place of cars and the stone harbour town rises like an amphitheatre. Boat days here mean hopping between the swimming coves along the island’s north coast or crossing to the islets and mainland opposite.

Where to go by boat

  • Hydra Town

    Car-free harbour town of stone mansions, at its most striking seen from the sea.

  • Mandraki

    Sheltered bay east of the town with a beach and calm water.

  • Bisti

    Pine-fringed cove on the island’s western tip with clear water.

  • Dokos

    Uninhabited island west of Hydra with quiet anchorages.

Tip: Hydra’s harbour is small and gets very busy in summer, so if you plan to stop in town arrive early in the day.
