Órmos Mandráki

✨ Hidden gem

Mandráki sits just 1nm west of Hydra Town and is the go-to anchorage when the harbour is packed — which in summer it almost always is. Drop anchor in 10–15m over clean sand and run lines to shore, saving yourself a hefty town quay fee while still being a short walk from everything Hydra has to offer. It's quieter and more relaxed than the town itself, yet close enough that you're not missing out on anything.
