HYDRA
Hydra
Hydra is one of the Saronic Islands of Greece in the Aegean Sea between the Saronic Gulf and the Argolic Gulf. It is separated from the Peloponnese by a narrow strait called on some maps "the Hydra Gulf." It is also a municipality and was one of the few provinces in Greece that have only two municipalities and fewer than five communes. In ancient times, the island was known as Hydrea. The uninhabited island of Dokos is included in the municipality.
No motor vehicles are allowed on this island, so the public transportation is provided by taxi-donkeys. The inhabited area is so compact that most people walk everywhere. There is one main town, known simply as "Hydra port."
