Hydra: a major attraction for the cruising yachtsman.  Hydra is one of the most picturesque islands in the Aegean.  Its multi-coloured houses, many dating from the days of the 18th century Hydriot sea captains, cover the steep slopes above the harbour.  All around the quays are lined with tavernas and handicraft shops.  The nightlife is busy.

Poros: Poros forms together with the Peloponnesian shore, a fine, fully sheltered stretch of water with green wooded shores.  It is a favorite weekend destination for Athenian yachtsmen.  Poros has a long history with few visible traces, some ruins of the temple of Poseidon, also a fine Byzantine monastery, and some ruins of the 19th Russian naval base.

Epidaurus:  The site of the most magnificent ancient theatre in Greece.  Every year, in July - August, there is a festival of the ancient tragedies which is attended by thousands all over the world.  Also the site of the famous sanctuary of Asclepios, God of Healing.

Aegina: The island closest to Athens.  The quays are lined with tavernas, restaurants and shops.  The most spectacular remnant of Aegina’s long history is the fine Doric temple of Aphaia - worth a visit for itself and for the view. On the east side there is the pleasant small resort of Agia Marina.
