I am having trouble with finding a car in Ermioni. Its there always only one Ferry at 8:30pm Hydra to Ermioni?
fyi - I've read all the postings for Ermioni, but having trouble and looking for more recent info.
This is my first time posting and asking for help.
I am arriving in Piraeus Port, Greece on a Sat morning in May 2026 and had planned to take a Ferry to Hydra.
Stay in Hydra 2 nights.
Then take a Ferry from Hydra to Ermioni, rent a car and drive to Nafplio (3 nites).
Then take few days driving to include stops at Delphi (maybe via the west side of the Corinth Bay) and to Meteora, ending at the Athens airport.
I'm having 2 problems and hope someone can help.
1) Ferry Schedules for May aren't open yet, but the current October schedule shows only one ferry a day at 8:30pm. Does anyone know if that is typical and I need to plan on that late Ferry? Or change my plan.
2) Has anyone rented a car in Ermioni and dropped it off at Athens Airport? The Rick Steves guide book says it's possible, and I think I read someone on this forum had done it, but nothing comes up on any of my usual car search engines.
I contacted (emailed) [email protected] as suggested in my Rick Steves guidebook, but have had no response. I will try to call them too. Can anyone suggest how I could do this?
Alternatively, I looked at Renting a car in Piraeus and returning it to Ermioni, then to Hydra - but no car options came up with the usual search engines.
I could do a Ferry RT from Piraeus to Hydra, then rent my car in Piraeus an return to the Airport for my driving tour, but that seemed inefficient. Or maybe I skip Hydra since I am going to 2 other islands, even though Hydra sounds like a unique choice.
Thank you for any help you can provide.
