Hydra is certainly the most suitable getaway for demanding visitors in search of something more than simply enjoying the sun and the deep crystal-clear waters.
Because cars are not allowed, Nature has remained unspoiled over the years and the very rhythms of the island still go to a pace of a long bygone era. Many paths allow hikers to come close to the heart of Hydra nature, secret places full of colors, not only the blue of the sky but also the green, the grey and the ochre of the soil.
Moreover, Hydra has developed a cultural activity through painting exhibitions that take place all along the summer, since many artists still live and work on the island. Famous old mansions, monasteries and museums can be visited in order to discover the brilliant past and the historic role played by the island.
