Why we like it

This is a unique one day getaway from Athens which lets you sharpen your photography skills in the hands of exceptional Greek pros through an exciting adventure in one of the most picturesque Greek islands, only a short ferry ride from Athens. 

Activity Description

Hydra's easy accessibility from Athens in just 1h 30mins ferry ride, makes it a unique chance to taste and photograph one of the most picturesque islands of Greece. Guided by local instructors- accomplished photographers, sharpen your skills in photography and immerse yourself in the local culture of this charming place!
In a friendly and casual environment, you will receive hands-on photography instructions, edit-and-critique reviews individually, and a chance to practise on different types of photography.
Our aim is to cover as many areas of photography as possible, such as archaeological, street, architectural, landscape and portrait photography or to focus on your type of preference.
Although instructor will provide technical tips and tricks throughout the duration of your photography day, the workshop will emphasize on what makes images interesting rather than simply technically correct.
