A greatway to get to know the local culture, enjoy new experiences and even save moneyis to buy local products.

At local markets or small shops, you can find oliveoil, dairy and meat products, and a huge array of local fruit and vegetablesand even local tipples! A visit to a typical island taverna is a must on anytrip, and here too you can choose more sustainable options.

WHAT CAN YOU DO?

• Choose sustainable fish in tavernas, like sardines and seabream, and avoid overfished species such as swordfish and mullet. Try unusual fish species found in the ‘Pick the Alien’ guide (see our Guide for more information).
• Support local producers and small shops, and stock up on fruit and vegetables at the weekly farmers’ markets (in Greek: ‘Laiki’)– ask when and where they take place.
• Every region and island has its own speciality produce – see our website for more information. If you have some time explore local vineyards, micro farms and try a cooking class!
