HIDRA

The southern island of Hidra is a treasure trove of breathtaking nature, a thriving coastal community, rich history, and culture. This is the place where kindergarteners celebrate with a lobster feast, featuring their own catch (!). And where kids are comfortable on boats long before they turn ten!
