Patmos holidays, in Greece: Organise your holidays in Patmos,
Greece
|
 Overview |
|
It is famous for its religious past, since it is in Patmos that Saint John the Divine wrote the Book of Revelation (the Apocalypse).
|
|
 |
For many years, the island was a place of pilgrimage for the Catholic and the Orthodox.
In the sixties, Patmos became for a while a favourite destination for hippies, who were trying to experience the spiritual vibes of the island. |
| Today, this mountainous island and its small coves attract sun lovers who wish to dive in its crystalline waters. |
|
|
From the island's prior isolation and religiousness only the imposing Monastery of Saint John and the signs forbidding nude bathing and topless remain.
