Spetses was almost cursed by its beauty; wonderful aesthetics formed by a myriad of colour from the houses and the striking impression left from the glorious landscape make it just too alluring to remain off the beaten track of tourism. Over the years it has transformed into a mecca of stylish shops and elegant boutiques for day-trippers from Athens, basking in the lavish surroundings and overwhelming the island in a sea of wealth and luxury. However, the swanky and extravagant image shouldn’t put off anyone from visiting; each summer Spetses open its arms, as well as its endless tavernas and bars, to holidaymakers from all across Europe. Ayia Paraskevi Beach is perhaps the highlight of the island, attracting many with the azure blue water next to verdant mountainside. Head a bit further along the shore and discover the Bekiri Cave – one of many that adorn the coast. A day of sightseeing, sunbathing and shopping can prove an exhausting combination, especially considering the plethora of vintage stores and picturesque beaches. To refresh yourself after an action packed day under the Mediterranean Sun, Spetses’ nightlife is the perfect cocktail of energy amid a laid back atmosphere. Cocktail bars offer the most invigorating experience when night falls on the magical island, and for a more tranquil experience, just sit with friends and family in one of the restaurants around the quaint harbourside.
Private cars are banned on the island, so many choose to travel by rental motorcycles. Walking is also another viable option, and public transport is reliable, though can be fairly expensive.
With a shoreline of pebbled beaches lining a narrow inlet of the electric blue waters of the warm Aegean Sea, the small seaside town of Ermioni is an undoubted gem studding the south-eastern coast of Greece. Found on the historic Argolid Peninsula, site of one of the first major settlements in the classical era of Greece, Ermioni is surrounded on three-sides by hilly Mediterranean scrubland and groves of blossoming olive trees. Extending from the east of town is a narrow promontory tipped by the lush pine forest of Bisti Grove (‘Bisti,’ appropriately meaning ‘tail’ in Greek). Though small, this stretch of land is steeped in history, evident in the Venetian walls that line the coast and the ancient vestiges of a temple built to worship the deity Poseidon found near the entrance to the grove. The port of Ermioni is a quaint marina formed of two piers that project into the Aegean Sea. Ferries entering the harbour dock at a designated section of the larger pier, just beside a small undercover waiting terminal. There are no facilities in the terminal itself, though the promenade that runs perpendicular to the pier is crammed with restaurants, cafes and a few shops selling refreshments. Ermioni is a rural town with very few transport links. The town consists mainly of labyrinthine residential streets and as such does not have a local bus service or train station, though a bus does run from Athens airport to the nearby village of Kranidi. Driving to the port can prove difficult too, with just two twisting roads leading in and out of town and the nearest major motorway over 60-miles away. Only one route currently operates from the port. A Hellenic Seaways service sails around the Argolid Peninsula before heading north along the Mediterranean to the port of Piraeus; a major port city just 5-miles from the capital of Athens. It’s a relatively short trip that leaves Ermioni a number of times each day.
