Hydra & Island Day Trips from Nafplio
The Saronic islands sit just off the Argolid coast, and Hydra — where cars are banned and donkeys still carry the luggage up from the port — is the one worth the day. Trips run by road to the coast and then by fast boat, with time to swim, walk the stone harbour and eat before the return.

Island Day Trips en Nafplio — Preguntas frecuentes
Can you do a day trip to Hydra from Nafplio?
Yes — full-day trips with transfer and boat start around €39 and give you several hours on the island, usually with a swimming stop. It makes a long but easy day; the crossing from the mainland coast takes well under an hour.
Why are there no cars on Hydra?
Motor vehicles have been banned on the island since the 1950s to protect its architecture. Everything moves by donkey, mule or water taxi, which is a large part of why the harbour looks as it does.
Which island is best to visit from Nafplio?
Hydra for the architecture and the car-free harbour, Spetses for pine woods and swimming, and tiny Romvi in the gulf itself for a half-day boat stop. Hydra has the most tours running from Nafplio.
