Hydra Alone: A Solo Travel Guide for Women 50 and Over

Hydra, an island with no cars.

Take a harbor-facing table at Piato, walk west to Kamini and Vlichos for a swim, and dine in the lemon-tree courtyard at Kryfo Limani, keeping to the lit harbor routes after dark.

Eat alone: Veranda, Giasemi, souvlaki at Kai Kremmidi, lunch as the easy meal.

See: Kipos, the monastery climb, Spetses, Poros and Dokos.

Feel safe: lit harbor routes, a flashlight west of town, the SOS helpline.

Day plans, hotels by budget and honest safety notes. EPUB ebook.
