Summer is in full swing as we turn the page to August.
Here's a look at what's been happening at The Pirate Bar.

June welcomed the island's art crowd, with an insane night and dance party following the annual opening at the Deste Slaughterhouse. This year, the space was transformed by the work of Nari Ward, marking another memorable season of contemporary art on Hydra.

The Miaoulia celebrations soon followed, filling the island with music, fireworks and tradition. By July, football fever had taken over, with fans gathering along the waterfront to watch the World Cup on outdoor screens with the contagious excitement filling the warm summer air.

Long evenings, lively conversations and unforgettable nights by the harbour— this is summer at The Pirate Bar 🏴‍☠️

The glowing sun rises from the Aegean as the full moon descends behind the curvaceous peaks of Vlychos. This is the glorious view of an early morning from the Hydra flagpole, towering above the still quiet port.

Down below at The Pirate Bar, a few chairs begin filling with the earliest risers—mostly local workers easing into their day in the best way, as the sun's rays reach across the slippery stones, bringing immediate warmth to the heart of Hydra.

Meanwhile, the lull of a few fishermen's boats can be heard across the water. Horses and donkeys' abrupt hee-haws carry through the houses, bouncing off the ragged surfaces, while roosters chime in with the acoustics and church bells sing their morning songs.

The day has begun,
Summer has sprung.
Welcome June
And farewell full moon.

Kalo Mina 🌕

May has arrived along with the full moon and a weekend of cooler weather and cloudy skies. The trickle of tourists has brought the island a slow and steady bit of business to kick off the season as well as a bit of calm after the Easter commotion.

As most of you know, The Pirate Bar is an old soul. Much of the decor and styling has remained the same over the years, holding a nostalgic feeling for those who return to see the familiar artwork, original signage, and memorabilia on display.

Our barista has been with us for many years and here he has shared his photographic eye of detail with this collection of photos for you all to enjoy!

Our cozy corner of the world is waking up with quite a few unexpected tourists wandering our uneven stone streets as locals busily prepare for the season ahead.

Last week marked the annual celebration of Greece’s Independence, followed by the sailboat race—bringing familiar skippers and crew members ashore to party for a couple of nights. And before that, the island burst into Carnival (Απόκριες) fun, with parades showcasing a host of creative costumes.

Just up ahead, we have Hydra’s Trail Event, coinciding with Catholic Easter, followed by Orthodox Pascha the week after.

And all this comes after Hollywood spent a few weeks on Hydra. Whispers of “Brad Pitt” could be heard, with many hoping to catch a glimpse during filming in all the most familiar places. It brought a touch of winter excitement to our slow-paced island—and it’s always fun to see our everyday streets up on the big screen.

While these months may be much quieter than the hotter days most visitors know so well, they are far from boring. And soon, the Easter madness will come washing over us like a wild wave.

So we brace ourselves—summer is on its way.
