Maye Musk walked the streets of Hydra

Musk arrived on Hydra from Santorini on the “O’ Pari” yacht belonging to a Greek businessman.

Built-in 2020, O’Pari is designed for exquisite indoor/outdoor living and boasts voluminous interior and exterior spaces across several decks: ideal for bronzing, lounging or entertaining. She has sensational features such as a helipad, underwater lights, beach club and gym.

The mother of the business magnate and investor walked the streets of the historic island and marvelled at the views. Hydra town is a glorious tangle of little streets and quirky corners that makes the town feel like a maze.

Hydra is one of the most picturesque Greek islands. It is located very close to Athens, just off the coast of Peloponnese in the Aegean Sea, between the Saronic and Argolic Gulfs.

The island is easily accessible by boat or hydrofoil; however, there is a catch…..cars and motor vehicles generally are not allowed on the island by law.

The island of Hydra is also known for its artistic side. A part of the Greek School of Fine Arts is located on the island, in the Tombazi mansion, which was donated to the institution by the family.

Furthermore, several Greek and international artists have been enchanted by the island’s beauty. Since 1960, Leonard Cohen has owned a house in Hydra, while the Rolling Stones and Pink Floyd used to regularly spend their vacations on the famous Greek island.

Maye Musk, a model and dietitian, also visited the famous Santorini island for the 1st International Luxury Tourism Conference and stated that Greece is an attractive destination for the affluent.

She expressed her fondness for the country and noted how it could easily entice even more of the world’s wealthy and super-wealthy, given the reduction of the COVID-19 pandemic impact and the emergence of luxury resorts.

She spoke at The Luxury Side of Greece conference, which Thira Municipality and Update Entertainment co-organised. She used the alternative name by which the island is known, as reported by GTP Headlines.

At 75 years old, Maye Musk utilized her Twitter and social media accounts to praise Greece, sharing photographs of her day trip exploring Santorini, including a Tesla and a boat, while avoiding the massive crowds that have begun to arrive.

Musk, who has previously visited Greece and several of its islands, commended Greek hospitality and promoted her book, A Woman Makes A Plan.

In 2022, her son visited Greece on his yacht, which was docked off the famous but tourist-soaked island of Mykonos, notorious for its high number of visitors during the summer months and the accompanying price gouging.

The conference showcased several speakers, including government officials focused on comprehensive development that has overtaken Santorini to the point where the infrastructure cannot keep up, necessitating restrictions on the number of cruise ships permitted to dock.

Eliza Vozemberg, a Member of the European Parliament from Greece, also spoke at the conference, emphasizing the need to gain a more significant percentage of the €150 billion ($168 billion) global luxury market.
