My wife and I first visited Spetses in 1991 and have been back many times since. In 1990 the island suffered from forest fires and I am hoping that all on the island are safe and well during the current Greek heatwave.

Hi Guys, Just though i would say Hi!, sorry if this is the wrong section mods! cheers

Hello everyone!!! I am so happy this site exists!!!  I am from Spetses and grew up there but I 've been living out of Spetses for a little while and I am very homesick so I love being able to stay in contact!!!! I am returning to Spetses however within the next few months and I am so excited!!!! It has always and will always be home to me there!!!! There is no place like Greece!!!!  Last time I was there was 4 years ago and I've seen things have stayed generally the same but I  did see some sprucing up.  How do you all feel about our sweet, quaint, yet happening island? I hope to hear from someone since I still have friends and family there. I have managed to keep in touch with some people but with some its been a bit tougher. We are young and starting our lives, you see... Some I'm sure some  are on the island and some are trying new things. WOw, what a  treat it will be to all meet up again. Iam from the Palio Limani neighborhood, anyone from there? Take care and have a great day everyone!!   Always, Joanna

Hi there, I have a sick kitty and am wondering if you can direct me to a licensed vet on Spetses who may be able to find out what's wrong and treat her. I'm hoping not to have to take her to Athens. If there's no one on Spetses, where do people generally take their sick pets?

I'd like soooo much to work this summer in my favorite island! I've been there every summer of my lifetime... If you have any information that may help me, please write me! I live in Athens and will be available for July-August-September.

There used to be a boat that ran from Spetses to Leonidio and I think points south, but apparently it was discontinued several years ago.  Does anyone know if it's planned to start again?

Hi there,

My name is Rebecca, I am 19 and I used to live in Spetses with my family when I was younger (1995-1996 roughly). My father was quite well known and is called Nigel (although some called him the Godfather ha) he used to help run BJs bar and also worked in Apollo Hotel.

HI I first came to Spetses(we are from Stockport in England) nearly 7 years ago after my friend reccommended it as he knew Takis after meeting him in london, who owns the Atlantis Hotel next to the petrol station with his sister Tolula and a canadian guy Terry.We loved it so much that the following year we came back 15 of us altogether and got Married we had a lovely wedding with horse drawn carriages covered in flowers we didn't get married at the town hall as it was being done up,and i like the way the greeks give you 3 chances to say NO before you say you DO.Then we had a really nice reception at the resteraunt next to the Atlantis the girl who worked there was from Oldham in UK.
