Sharing history

Methoni Castle, Hydra Island Greece, twinned with Pylos Nestoros, Peloponnese mainland Greece.

On Saturday, October 20 at 12:15 pm, the twinning protocol with the Municipality of Hydra is to be signed under the Naval Authority organized by the Municipality of Pylos-Nestoros. The celebration will be attended by the Mayor of Hydra, George Koukoudakis Koukoudakis.

More specifically for the celebration: The Navarino Naval War comes alive 191 years later, through the over-thematic representation organized by the Municipality of Pylos-Nestoros, in the same place that happene d at that time, with the participation of traditional sailing ships from all over Europe, composing a setting with live historical narrative, even the impressive destruction of the Turkish-Egyptian flagship.

The four-day celebration commences on October 18, culminating in the representation of the Battalion at the old port of Pylos, on Saturday afternoon on October 20 at 19:30.

At a feast of a timeless character, the route to the creation of the modern Greek state is presented, the historic decisions of the Admirals, the diplomatic efforts and the great moments of the Battle of the Battle.

Harriet's Hydra Horses' Facebook page has been hacked and disabled. Facebook has been no help whatsoever. Harriet is distraught and would sincerely appreciate any help from a techie fan who might be able to get her up and running again.

The final changes have been confirmed for future GGV applicants. Personally, I don't think Hydra will really benefit as the already low full-time population of the island means that the investment value has been discounted. Given that sellers have already been marketing their real estate for much higher than the threshold, it's not going to make a huge difference.

A typical morning for me living on Hydra Island. Over-buying plants at the garden centre, getting keys cut, anxiously rearranging delivery by boat from Ermioni because it won't be coming on Friday because it's the Hydra's Trails Event weekend.

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.
