Come and stand in the presence of a true ancient wonder, the Olive Tree of Vouves, a living monument that has witnessed millennia. You can feel the history in its magnificent, gnarled trunk, which, astonishingly, still produces olives to this day. It's a deeply peaceful spot, perfect for a moment of reflection. Right next to the tree, there's a charming little museum that shares the story of olive cultivation on our island, and a lovely cafe where you can relax with a coffee or snack.
Local tip ⭐: Visit in the early morning or late afternoon for a calmer experience and softer light that reveals the tree’s incredible texture.
Eco note 🌿
