The Saronic Islands: Greece's Hidden Treasures

The Saronic Islands offer a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of Athens, combining beautiful beaches with rich history. This picturesque archipelago includes Aegina, Poros, Hydra, and Spetses, each with its own distinct character. Aegina is famous for its pistachio farms and the well-preserved Temple of Aphaia, while car-free Hydra attracts artists with its stone mansions and charming harbour. History buffs will love Spetses' role in the Greek War of Independence, now showcased in its museums. The Saronic Gulf comes alive during the annual Aegina Fistiki Fest celebrating the island's famous pistachios, and the spectacular Armata Festival on Spetses commemorating a naval victory with impressive reenactments and fireworks. These islands are easily accessible by frequent ferries from Athens' ports of Piraeus and Rafina, making them perfect for island hopping or as a starting point for exploring more of Greece's island gems.
