Hydra Town is that charming heartbeat you’ve been seeking – a small town that embodies traditional Greek island life.

Whether you choose to simply browse the boutique shops, wander without direction through the back streets, visit a museum or two, or simply enjoy a leisurely meal at a waterfront taverna, Hydra Town promises to leave you wanting more.

Tucked away in the Saronic Gulf, the Greek island of Hydra is a tranquil destination that makes it one of the most beautiful islands in the region. And whilst Hydra may not be known for the long, white sandy beaches of other Greek islands, its beaches offer visitors numerous secluded coves, hidden beaches, and countless serene spots to sunbathe along its rocky coastline.

Hydra is a gem of a Greek island in the Saronic Gulf. Full of history, culture, natural beauty, and the vibrant colors for which the Greek islands are so well known, Hydra is something you don’t find too often in the 21st-century: it’s car-free! It is the perfect day trip from the mainland – but one can easily also wile away a few days of bliss here.
