About Avlaki

Avlaki is a beach on Hydra, facing north-west. Land shelters it from winds from the east, the south-east, and the south, so those winds leave the water flat here. A dirt track leads to the beach. Within 300 m there are 3 tavernas and restaurants and 5 bars and cafés. The sea is warmest in August, at about 26 °C. It is above 22 °C from June to October.

Written from map data (OpenStreetMap contributors), our own measurement of the open sea around the beach and NOAA sea temperatures (1991-2020 averages).

When is it busy?

Typical visitor levels around Hydra, month by month.

Hydra is busiest in August. For a flat sea and fewer people, the best months are June and July.

Visitor levels are nights spent in tourist accommodation in the Attica region (Eurostat, average of 2023–2025), compared with its busiest month. They show when the area is busy, not how many people are on a given beach.
