From Katakolo: Olive Oil Tasting & Kaiafas Lake Excursion｜Greece

Meet your local host at the cruise terminal and enjoy a scenic drive through the countryside to the village of Makrisia. Visit a traditional olive mill and discover why extra virgin olive oil is one of Greece's greatest treasures during a guided tasting experience.

Sample different varieties with freshly baked sourdough bread while learning how to recognize premium-quality olive oil through its aroma, flavor, and freshness. Have the opportunity to purchase olive oil directly from the local producers if you wish.

After discovering the flavors of Greece at a traditional olive mill, head to the beautiful Kaiafas Lake area. Here, enjoy free time to relax on the golden sandy beach, swim in the crystal-clear Ionian Sea, unwind with a drink at the beach bar, stroll through the fragrant Strofylia pine forest, or explore the peaceful Kaiafas Lake, a protected Natura 2000 wetland.

Afterwards, gather at a family-run taverna for a delicious homemade Greek lunch prepared by your host's mother using fresh local ingredients and traditional family recipes. It's the perfect way to end a relaxing day before returning comfortably to Katakolo Port.
