Question

share you experience and opinion whith me pls.

Answer 1

Hydra Island Greece, one of the most un-spoiled and interesting of the Greek islands, is a small rocky island in the Argo Saronic Gulf, south east out of the Athens port of Piraeus and within site of the southern Peloponnese mainland.
It's very cosmopolitan, safe and one of the easiest of the Greek islands to get to. Best of all the entire island is a preserved national monument and has retained all its 17th & 18th century charm and quaintness.
As there are no motorized vehicles, it really does have a feel of being left untouched by the modern world although you will find all the 'real world' conveniences.

What Spetses lacks in size it makes up for in character, charm and pure beauty. Approaching the island by sea, the one thing that all visitors find remarkable is the green of the pine covered hills. Spetses is probably at its most beautiful in the spring months of April and May when there is a feeling of expectation in the air and the streets are lined with wild spring flowers. The forest is far greener than in July and August and the temperatures are perfect for sunbathing, but not uncomfortably hot. In September and October, after the fever of July and August, it is once more time again to enjoy the beauty of Spetses. The temperature is "just right" for sunbathing and everyone welcomes the peace after the long, hot summer months.
Spetses is full of long sandy or pebbled beaches and of picturesque soft sandy or white pebbled coves and bays. Tall pine trees are boarding most of the beaches, offering their refreshing shadow

Answer 2

The advantage (and disadvantage) of both islands is that they are fairly near Athens. On Hydra absolutely no cars are allowed, and the settlement is traditional and very picturesque. Beaches are not that great though, it is mainly a rocky island, so the crystal clear waters are rather deep. Spetses has also a lot of architectural beauty and is very green, and offers more variety on beaches. Both islands especially during week ends in spring or summer have a lot of visitors (so book early).
If you ask my opinion, I prefer Hydra.

Answer 3

Hydra is perhaps the only traditional island left. The rest are "Made for Tourists" . Although Hydra gets a lot of tourists as well the locals have not succumbed to cheap, kitz junque.

Answer 4

They are very beautiful islands, picturesque and beautiful landscapes. Spetses has nice beaches too (Hydra has no nice beaches, but the architecture is beautiful).

Answer 5

hi. i might say that happiness is defined via its feeling of contentedness. Happiness is often accomplished whilst specific situations, that folk traditionally discover maximum properly known or stable, are met. Bliss is whilst a individual has accomplished a sparkling point of happiness that perpetuates itself interior of that individual. Happiness could be fleeting yet bliss is meant to final awhile longer. So whilst human beings are "following their bliss", they are moving into a chain of maximum properly known activities, for them, till they gain a extra lasting content cloth or happiness. Ecstasy is the "extreme" you gets from the two happiness and bliss. The ecstasy is the ingredient that could block out damaging innovations and override specific logical techniques on a similar time as in the state of "happiness and bliss". I haven't any actual very own examples different than commentary and classification. yet it relatively is all basically my opinion. thank you and stable bye.
