Dokos or Dhokos (Δοκός ) is a small Greek island of the Argo-Saronic Gulf, adjacent to Hydra, and separated from the Peloponnese by a narrow strait called on some maps "the Hydra Gulf." The island is populated only by some Orthodox monks and perennial sheep herders. In 2001 the population was 43.

A Byzantine castle was build in the 7th century, which was used also by the Venetians.
