4Hydra, for a car-free escape

Significantly cheaper than its sister island of Spetses, Hydra is where to go if you love classy mansions, crystalline waters and a bohemian way of life. The island’s quaint port and virgin beaches have inspired creatives for decades, including Leonard Cohen, who lived here in the 60s.

Hydra is entirely free of cars, so you couldn’t ask for a quieter place to create your own masterpiece.
