Hydra in the Argosaronic gulf, is one of the most romantic destinations in Greece. It is built in the shape of an amphitheatre and has traditional stone mansions and narrow cobble paved streets. With the exception of rubbish trucks, cars are banned on the island and the main mode of transport are the 500 plus donkeys, horses, mules and water taxis. Many Athenians drive to Metochi, leave their car in the secure car park, and take the 20-minute passenger ferry across to Hydra. This is one of the reasons why the island maintains its romantic persona and distinctive atmosphere.
