Vacation on Hydra Island beaches - hidden bays, top resorts and recreation areas

Hydra isn’t characterized by an abundance of large-scale beaches, but guests can choose from one of the picturesque bays. Most noisy beaches are in close proximity to the port area, and it won’t be difficult to find a suitable place for a secluded pastime in remote parts of the island. The most popular and crowded is the pebble beach of Spilia located just outside the port area. This stretch of coast has been long chosen by divers, as Spilia Beach is deep.

Idroneta Beach is popular among families with children and fans of sunbathing. It’s situated just outside the ramparts, and visitors can combine beach holidays with walks along the picturesque historical places. It would be incredibly interesting to visit the Avlaki Beach featuring huge boulders. In the evening spectacular artistic lighting brightens huge stones; there is always music and lively atmosphere on the beach after sunset.

The pebbly Camivi Beach is situated in the picturesque haven. Since ancient times, these beautiful places are in demand of fishermen, and you can always see fishing boats moored at the coast. Fans of angling will have a great opportunity to diversify their leisure; locals are happy to provide car and boat, and everything you need for fishing. It’s also worth noting that Camivi Beach is shallow, so there are lots of families with children there. There are popular taverns and bars, where you can rest comfortably all day long, in the immediate vicinity of the coast. Copyright www.orangesmile.com

Travelers who choose to stay at Vlicha Beach have an opportunity to enjoy unique historical sites. The beach provides panoramic views of the 17th-century bridge, as well as one of the oldest churches in the neighborhood. Those who prefer to stay at the sandy coast enjoy the Palamidov Beach. It’s suitable for various activities; you can comfortably sunbathe there or rent a boat and go for a romantic cruise. There is a decent selection of dining places next to the coast, so gourmets would enjoy Palamidov.

One of the most ambitious and at the same time the quietest place on the island is the Molos Beach situated in the rocky cove. The beach is safely protected from the wind by high cliffs, so the sea is always very calm and incredibly clean there. The path to the beach is hard and passes through difficult mountainous terrain, and that’s why there are few vacationers. There are picturesque beaches, including Bisti, on the island. Dense pine forest rises close to the coast. Bisti can be called one of the most beautiful beaches on the island without share of doubt. Vacationers will have everything for water sports, including beach and sports equipment rentals.

The gorgeous well-maintained beach is located in the bay of St. Nicholas. These places are appreciated by fans of underwater fishing, as well as those who love snorkeling. Klimakov stands out among the luxurious beaches; it's quite an extensive stretch of coast with amazing old villas situated along. Once wealthy mariners have lived there, and today unique architectural monuments are converted into beach hotels.
