One Day Excursion in Hydra

A rich naval tradition and a cosmopolitan island ambience are the defining characteristics of Hydra – a popular island in the Argosaronic Gulf – which attracts every year many personalities and jet-setters from Greece and abroad. This was the favourite destination and place of residence of painter Nikos Hatzikyriakos-Ghika, Leonard Cohen, and Henry Miller. It is also the birthplace of painter Panagiotis Tetsis, and of many other famous artists, writers etc. The island’s great beauty was appreciated also by celebrities such as Maria Callas, Pablo Picasso, and Sophia Loren.

Apart from being a popular sailing destination, Hydra is also very interesting from an architectural point of view, as a number of luxury residences, built by Italian craftsmen, are scattered on the island. The grand houses of the local fighters for the Greek War of Independence (1821) are now museums which offer their visitors an insight into that particular period in Greek history.

We will move south towards the island with the largest maritime tradition of the Argosaronic Gulf. First stop at the Port as you will need time to enjoy the magical alleys and the beautiful houses of the Heroes of the revolution that have been turned into museums. Right next to the port you can also enjoy a perfect breakfast with a unique view and right below the beach with crystal clear waters! You will taste excellent Greek flavors in the fish taverns and then we can depart for an afternoon swim in the Turquoise waters of Tselevinia.
