Location
Hydra,
Other spellings Idra, Ydra
Beach Name
Hydra
My Rating Overall
3=good beach, would choose it for swimming
among other beaches if we were in the area
Beach
R=rocks
The large rocks at the edge of Hydra town act as landing spot
for bathers who find plenty of flat spots to place their towels.
Entry to the water is also abrupt jumping from the rocks or the
flat cement pads placed there for the bathers.
Sea Floor
R=rock
Water
4=sea water was excellent and inviting for swimming. We
would go out of
our way to swim there again
(just my own unscientific observation of the water feel and appearance)
My family and I enjoy the water when it is crystal clear, and cool
instead of warm. We don' like to see any visible floating particles
of any kind
or algae settled
on the beach.
Clothing
Topless sunbathing is common
Access
Good=paved road all the way to the beach, parking near
the beach
There are no cars on Hydra island so the beach is
a short walk from the town
Amenities
T=town within walking distance
RV / Camper Accessibility
N= Campers explicitly forbidden, or the site
is unsuitable for RV parking
No cars are allowed in Hydra island
Snorkeling
P=looks promising but I did not dive
