Hydra Hideaway

The Greek Island of Hydra

Hydra, in the Saronic Gulf, just an hour from Athens...

Hydra is a jewel of a Greek Island, with whitewashed houses climbing the hills around the harbour.

Watch the world go by from the cafes around the port... Explore the narrow cobbled lanes... Hike up to the monastery at the top of the island... Swim in crystal clear waters... Round the day off in a traditional taverna or a lively bar.

Other activities include sailing, watersports, shopping, and the island is very popular with artists.
