Dokos is a small almost-uninhabited Greek island in the Saronic Gulf, 5 kilometres north of Hydra and 80 kilometres south of Athens — a 13-square-kilometre rocky island with about 20 year-round residents (mostly shepherds), no road network, and no commercial settlement. The island is internationally archaeologically significant: in 1975 a Bronze Age shipwreck dating to 2200 BC was identified off the north coast — the Dokos shipwreck, currently the world's oldest known shipwreck, with 500+ amphoras of Helladic pottery still in situ on the seabed at 20 metres depth. The wreck site is now a permit-required protected archaeological zone. The west-coast Skinthos Bay is the standard yacht anchorage with sand-and-weed seabed and protection from the prevailing meltemi north wind. Dokos is 30 minutes from Hydra by sail. Season runs May through October; meltemi peak July-August.
