Kristen and I have been traveling from island to island quite a bit recently. We stayed in Koufonissi for one night, Hydra for one night, and now we're in Poros. I'll go one by one...
Koufinissi was quite an experience. It was so windy there that I felt like a hurricane was about to strike at any moment! The manager at our hotel suggested that we not even visit the white sand beach (Pori) because it would not be very pleasant. There was no way that we were missing it though; Pori was the whole reason we came to Koufinissi! After a long walk to Pori, Kristen and I were slightly disappointed that its sand was not even white. Even so, the beach was beautiful :) We didn't stay for long because the wind was stirring up the sand and making it sting our legs...but the journey was still worth it.
From Koufinissi, we headed to Hydra. Hydra was different than the other islands we have visited; it was greener and the buildings were more Venetian in style. Overall, Hydra was quaint and quiet.
Instead of taking a ferry from Hydra to Poros, we actually went on a sailboat (with experienced sailors...not to worry)! The trip was two hours and we got about twice as tan during that time than all the time laying out on beaches combined! I have sailed on Lake Travis but never on a sea; it was a lot of fun!
I hope everyone is doing great. I will post again soon :)
