The local pottery craft is well-known, and participants will have the opportunity to witness the creation of this celebrated pottery.

In addition to the village scenery, this cultural retreat offers a unique bicycle experience, as the island is free of cars, vans, or buses. The narrow streets are ideal for motorbikes and bicycles only.
