The Culinary Scene
Despite its size, Schinoussa has an outsized culinary reputation, famous for its Fava beans. The Fava Festival in early summer is a highlight. The island attracts a sophisticated crowd in July and August, filling the few high-quality tavernas.
Relaxation
There is little "sightseeing" here. It is a place to swim, eat, and sleep. June and September offer the most relaxed version of this itinerary, with calm seas for boat trips around the island.
