Entering the port one finds canons, embrasures and villas built in the 18th and 19th centuries scattered along the waterfront. Blessed by the absence of cars, Hydra provides a splendid promenade for those who wish to walk through its arched back streets.

METHONI: This small town on the south west side of Peloponnese has a castle built by the Venetians during her peak in the medieval era which overlooks a secluded beach. A bridge at the south side of the castle leads to a smaller outlet where Turks have built an octagonal tower.
PORTO KAYIO: A picturesque bay of eastern Mani, is on one's way to the Cape of Tenaro, a rather small and secluded bay surrounded by greenery.
KITHIRA: All villages here were built around the 19th century. One can visit the remains of towers built by Venetians who inhabited the island for almost five centuries. Kithira, known for her local delicacies is compromised of impressive hills and secluded white pebbled bays.
GERAKAS: This natural port is set in a small fjord, formed by steep cliffs. At the end of the fjord and next to the homes, there is a small lagoon with a very narrow opening which almost resembles a lake. Gerakas is a beautiful port with cosy taverns and fresh food.
SPETSES: This island, covered in pine trees and beautiful beaches has a history dating back to 2500 B.C. Antique canons decoratively guard the scenic harbour and the dozens of shops and cafes that line the shore.
