About Hydra
A favorite retreat of the international jet-set Hydra maintains its rare blend of enduring ethnic heritage and graceful cosmopolitan panache which single it out as one of the last unspoiled jewels of traditional Mediterranean allure offering its visitors a unique glimpse of the living past.
The enchanting architecture and dramatic landscapes of the island are even more accentuated by stories of its often harsh history and heroic feats of its proud fleet.
A beloved “muse” of many great artists and craftsmen Hydra is a home to numerous delightful shops displaying beautiful works of creative originality inspired by the island’s wealthy traditional heritage.
Dedicated to pedestrians Hydra is a perfect place to relax and enjoy one of the most spectacular sunsets in Greece, visit one of the cozy coffee shops on the waterfront, spend time shopping for the “perfect” gift or explore the narrow cobbled streets on foot or by the island’s traditional “vehicle”: the saddled donkey!
