If it's real peace you seek, and not merely a temporary reprieve from the city, take the metro to Piraeus and remember that the closest Greek islands are less than an hour away. You may be lucky enough to spot dolphins swimming alongside the ferries, or see flying fishes leaping out of the water, both of which are reasonably common occurrences in the Aegean.
