Spetses is one of the lesser-explored Greek islands but has a long connection with literature and culture. As it is a car-free island, it is a great place to explore by bike or on foot. On luxury Spetses holidays, rent a bike from the port and pedal down the picturesque, pebbled streets, under pines trees and down the coastal roads. Spetses has a lovely range of charming little coves to explore including the beautifully secluded Xilokeriza cove. Another great way to get to know Spetses and beyond is aboard a luxury catamaran, either for a day trip or a couple of nights aboard. Sail on towards another of the Saronic Islands or around the peninsula of Methana, famous for hot mineral springs and the baths of Pausanias.
