Why go

A privately owned, wooded island just southeast of Spetses.

Spetsopoula is best appreciated from the sea, where its pine-covered slopes and protected coves form part of the wider Spetses sailing landscape.

Spetsopoula lies close to Spetses but is privately owned and has no public village or visitor infrastructure. Its low, green profile and sheltered shoreline are familiar to sailors moving through the Argolic Gulf, yet access should never be assumed.

A boat trip around the area can still offer views of its coves and the surrounding islets. The experience belongs within a wider sailing day rather than as a destination to land on, and responsible skippers respect private boundaries.

Practical information

There is no public ferry and landing requires permission. Arrange any route with a licensed local operator in Spetses and confirm which anchorages or waters are legally accessible.
