Hydra is a small Greek island off the coast of the Peloponnese peninsula. It is one of the most picturesque and unspoiled islands in the Saronic Gulf and is widely known for its incredibly unique atmosphere of peace and serenity. On the island of Hydra, cars are completely banned; the only way to get around is by foot, horse-drawn carriage, or donkey. The island stands out for being the only place in Greece where time seems to stand still – a place where time can be spent leisurely strolling the cobblestone streets, admiring the whitewashed shutters and doors of the picturesque stone buildings, and sipping ouzo at one of the waterside tavernas. The island is an ideal destination for anyone who wants to experience a place that offers a bit of peace and serenity from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
