We arrived by the hydrofolis from Piraeus at the port of Spetses called Dapia. The temperature hovered around 26 degrees C and everything seemed set for a perfect holiday. Everything about the island from the pine forests to the horse traps that move about the harbor front lend a romantic and... More >
Lovely place

The most impressive fact in Spetses was that we had to travel on donkeys from the port to our hotel. The houses in Spetses have traditional architecture and most are built of stone. No compare with Cyclades and their white houses. The colour that dominates in Spetses is not white but grey.

The most beautiful part of Spetses is Dappia, the port, with the small canons around and the lovely cafeterias. This is a great spot especially with the soft lights at night.
No vehicles are allowed on Spetses, except for the public bus that goes around the island, bikes and motorbikes. Be... More >

I had heard a lot about Spetses from a friend who has a summer house there and spent a couple of days there in June. As it was early season and the middle of week, we had the island for ourselves. Trip from Athens is easy and very fast by hydrofoil. Do not take much luggage because it may be... More >

Spetses doesn't have good beaches or strong nightlife. But it has lovely architecture with impressive old buildings and one of the best cocktail spots in Greece. The port of Spetses is called Dapia and is surrounded by beautiful bars and cafes. To have a drink at night in these bars is a wonderful... More >
The hydrofoil to Spetses was very fast and accurate but a bit pricey. The island is beautiful, although it was small. There is not much to see, so I would suggest to go for a long weekend or at least no more than 5 days. Beaches are nice but I have seen better in other Greek islands. You go to the... More >

As I had a few days left before my holidays end, I went for a weekend to Spetses. It was my first time there. The island is small but very picturesque. Old mansions all over the town, paved streets and a lot of horse carriages are the main characteristics of Spetses. Riding a horse carriage is the... More >
Picturesque and busy

Spetses is a small island but it has enough to keep you busy for a week, or at least for a long weekend. Close to Athens and well connected, so you will not face troubles in transportations. The port is very picturesque and I liked it ever more at nights, with the small lights like candles. Best... More >

A place to relax

Spetses is a place where you can relax. It would be better to go by FlyingCat, as Dolphins are not that good. There are very nice beaches on Spetses and reall good fish restaurants by the sea. Xilokeriza was my best beach. It is good to rent a motorbike in order to travel around the island. Spetses... More >
