Tourist carriages, buses and taxis are located
on the Kosnegercias Square on the west side of the harbor.

Even in October, there are quite a few tourists visiting because it is close to Athens,
but at the hotel, the guests are reserved for two of us.

Please use your favorite room.

The fish market is now filled with mountains of small fish,
squid, octopus, and squid that have just been caught from the sea.

Octopus and the like can be caught at the port just in front of them.
Various miscellaneous fish such as shellfish
that you see for the first time are waiting for customers in the stalls .

The party starts from noon at restaurant on Iroti Street,
which is located behind Harbor Street.

When I saw a customer drinking alcohol
while eating an octopus that was grilled over charcoal at the storefront,
I quickly became hungry.

"This looks like delicious food!"

The island,
where the first capital was located after the Greek War of Independence in 1827 It is also famous for producing pistachios.

The street facing the harbor is lined with taverna (restaurants) and cafes,
and although it is in the off-season,
the number of customers is good.

The souvenir shop that sells pistachios is so crowded that customers flock when the ferry arrives.

The boarding area from 5 to 6 in the evening is crowded with cruise passengers all day long.

The scenery of the harbor with Japanese,
Korean, and Chinese flying around and holding a pistachio bag in both hands is lively.
