Greek olive wood

About

Found on Rhodes, Greek olive wood occupies Ionos Dragoumi 5 in Rodos 851 00, close to the island's main town and its harbour.

Rhodes Town, Lindos, Faliraki, Ixia, Ialysos, Kallithea, Afandou and Kolymbia all lie within reach, so the shop fits easily into a day exploring the island. Operating as a gift shop, it is known for pieces made from olive wood, and 11 reviews give it an average of 4.3 out of 5. Its own site at http://www.hermesrhodes.gr/ carries further detail.

Daily life slows in the afternoon, and tavernas serve late into the evening, which shapes how a day here tends to run. The season runs roughly from May to October, with August the busiest month for ferries and beaches.

Most Greek islands are rocky and hilly, and olives, grapes and capers grow widely on terraced slopes, which is why olive wood turns up in so many local workshops. Monk seals and loggerhead turtles live around the islands, and many have protected nesting beaches, so a coastal walk may be rewarded.
