The Capital's retreat?..........
Spetses has a reputation for being a retreat for the wealthy Athenians. Evidence of this can be seen with the high end yachts and cruisers in the marina and the discreet walled villas.
Private cars are banned on Spetses, so transportation is by one of the two local buses or taxis, bikes or horse drawn carriages.
The main town is classy and attractive with whitewashed mansions covered in bougainvillea, wide squares, nice restaurants and bars and a nice elegant feel about it. It has been used as a filming location for a number of movies including 2022 Netflix movie 'Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery' and 2021 awards contender 'The Lost Daughter' starring Olivia Colman.
At only 10 miles square the island is not big and a road runs around the outside of the island, ensuring access to beaches, the best of which are in the south of the island.
If you are there in September, be sure not to miss the Armata Festival, an island wide celebration which culminates in the burning of a boat in commemoration of a naval battle.
Please be aware that due to ferry and flight timings, a stay overnight in Athens may be required in either direction.

Happy People
The team have booked three very different holidays for me, two for a couple and one for a group of nine. They listened to our requirements and used their expert knowledge of Greece to provide us with several options from which to choose. I found them to be very professional, nothing is too much trouble and they strive to find a good deal. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

The business has booked me a few different holidays ranging from 2 weeks away in the sun to City Breaks. They have a great knowledge and understanding of your needs and requirements when booking a holiday. They always try to accommodate your budget and work extremely hard to get you what you're asking for. They have an extremely good knowledge of the Greek Islands and never fail when recommending specific places. I would always recommend the team as they are helpful and professional at all times.
