During the olive gathering season it is also very interesting to take a trip to the fields to witness the way the olives are gathered and sieved followed by a trip to one of the local olive mills, which offer tours, to witness the oil extraction. There are also plenty of daily excursions available, such as trips to Hydra and Spetses that are unique and transport is by boat.
