About this experience

Plakes is the waterfront dining strip on Hydra's harbour, where restaurants and tavernas line the stone quay with tables set against the sea. The area offers fresh seafood, Greek meze, and local wines, with views of the historic mansions and the Saronic Gulf. Dining here is a central part of Hydra's evening routine, with most venues open from late morning until midnight.
