If you’re still undecided when it comes to where to go this summer, then you need to visit this Greek island. 

Just an hour fast ferry ride from Athens, this Saronic island has all vibes; no cars, iconic sunsets, galleries and art, delicious restaurants and insanely clear water. I still can’t stop thinking about my time there this month. 

📍 Hydra, Greece
