The Saronic islands harbour their own secrets and surprises.
They are only a few miles from the port of Piraeus
and though they are very close to one another, each
one has its own unique character. The waters are calm
and blue and the plant life differs depending on where
you are. Some islands of this complex are characterized
by magnificent rocky landscapes, while unique sandy
beaches are the hallmarks of others.
The houses in Hydra are built around its beautiful
harbour and include 18th and 19th century buildings.
There are no cars on the island and donkeys are used
for transportation. For the traveller who seeks a dreamlike
setting in combination with both peace and fun, the island
of Hydra is an ideal destination.
Here is an island with a strong history, centenarian
trees and beautiful beaches with crystal clear waters.
Spetses can offer visitors non-stop night life, a lively
atmosphere and monuments that are proof of the island’s
role and that of its residents during the reign of the
Ottoman Empire. The natural bays of the coastline of
Spetses are an open invitation to seekers of new sights.
The traditional houses, narrow streets and blue
sea with its quiet coasts are the trademarks of the island
of Poros. Here one may enjoy peaceful holidays, wander
around the island and admire. The pine trees often grow
on cliffs over the coast or even right on the sandy beaches,
while the fragrance of the famous lemon tree forest permeates
the air.
The numerous seaside villages, the rich and
varied landscapes of the island, the archaeological sites
and the beauty of the main town are what make Aegina
endearing to visitors. It has many sandy beaches with
waters that are calm and blue and a night life that will
not disappoint. This island that produces the famous
Aegina pistachios knows how to take good care of its
guests.
