DONKEY/MULE
TRANSPORTATION ON...
HYDRA ISLAND......
allowed on Hydra
-
we use the time-honoured method of animal transport. Individually owned
donkeys and mules are stationed on the main port where the boats arrive.
You will have to negotiate the price to your hotel/pension/villa with the
muleteer. It is part of the fun! A single donkey/mule can carry two large
suitcases and two carry bags. If you are travelling with an elderly or
invalided person or just want to try it out yourself for a laugh, you can
also ride on the back of a donkey/mule to your accommodation.

(NB : Spilios speaks only a little English.)
If you are staying in self-catering accommodation you can also hire
a donkey/mule to transport groceries and goods to your door. (eg. there
is no other way to get two dozen bottles of mineral water to your house!)
On Hydra, everything from refridgerators to live sheep are transported
on the backs of these sturdy animals.
