Luxury Mandraki Beach Resort on Hydra Island Greece
by Kelsey Edwards 05 Jul, 2023
The Mandraki Beach Resort nestled in Mandraki Bay has been a labour of love and perseverance for owners and Hydra residents, Arthur and Janis Fitzwilliam. Much anticipated, after seven years, the resort in all aspects is fully open and for me, it is one of the most relaxing treats on Hydra. I sincerely applaud the results.

May Day strikes and events on Hydra Island Greece.
by Kelsey Edwards 30 Apr, 2023
Even though it's a holiday weekend, or more likely because it is, Greece's shipping unions are on strike on Monday 1st of May. So no Hellenic Seaways cats or dolphins will be sailing to or from Hydra. For visitors and guests temporarily stranded on the island for slightly longer than anticipated, the sun has come out just in time for the live music event at the Enalion Restaurant for today's lunch at 14:00. And tomorrow, lunch at Marina's Taverna has live guitar music and the weather forecast predicts wonderfully sunny weather.
