My new husband and I travelled to Patmos last summer as part of our Greek Island honeymoon! We arrived by boat from Leros and were given a very warm welcome by our hosts in The Blue Bay hotel. Anna and her lovely family made us very welcome and helped enhance our stay on the islands. We spent our four days sightseeing and relaxing. Our first day involved a fairly steep walk up the old Byzantine path to the Monastery of St. John. That was well worth the visit and the views were great from the top. We ate in some lovely restaurants in Skala, including Pandelis Taverna and Hiljomodi Ouzeri.
We hired a car and visited many of the lovely beaches of Patmos. We were a little disappointed that there wasn't a better bus service on the island, but we kind of expected that, as it is difficult to move around in most Greek islands (I wonder why the locals don't ask for this, it will be good not for tourism only but for themselves too to have more acurate buses). From beaches, we went to Kambos, Agriolivado and Psili Ammos. We ate the most delicious meal at Psistaria Leonidas near Lampi Beach. It was really fantastic and prices were among the cheapest in Greece (25 euros for two people and we couldn't eat a potato more)!!
