Patmos is an island so strongly related to religion, you can actually feel it in every air breathe in Chora. But that is only in Chora with the big monastery impressively above your head. Everywhere else there is summer: sparkling beaches, few trees for shade, strong sun and inviting beach chairs.... More >
Patmos has a unique energy. As far as I've seen, it is not a big island but it is well known for its religious history. So, whether you are interested in religion or not, a thing you must see once you visit Patmos is the Monastery of Saint John. It is made like a fortress and inside the monastery,... More >

A small island, famous for the cave where John the Evangelist wrote the Book of Revelation, or the Apocalypse. The cave is small, decorated with hanging lamps and some icons similar to the ones at the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, but on a much smaller scale due to space and the fact that the Greek... More >
Patmos has a unique appeal. It is known as the centre of pilgrimage for Orthodox Christians and many of my friends considered it as a spiritual island. The beautiful landscape instantly entices the senses. There is a fine harmony between beauty and spirituality on Patmos. We stayed at a small hotel... More >
From my visit, I got that Patmos is a symbol of faith for the Greeks. Most foreigners don't even know that Apostle John wrote the Book of Revelation there and think of Patmos as a quiet island to relax. Indeed, this is it!
This is a lovely island with small beaches and nice people, although it... More >

Nature in Patmos is very nice. This is the top on the island. Beaches could be better organized, like have showers, toilets and changing cabins. Rent a scooter for 2 days to visit the whole island (34 sq km) at your own pace and stop wherever you like, the views are wonderful. The monastery and the... More >

Villages on Patmos are small but have great panoramic view. A lot of beautiful monasteries, you have to see them all. After all, this is the main attraction on Patmos. Great Lambi beach with coloured stones and a nice, cheap tavern by the beach. No nightlife in my opinion, only some lovely... More >
We went to Patmos by catamaran from Rhodes, which passed a lot of other islands en route. Patmos is beautiful, with a perfect combination of beachlife, cultural/ historical sights, dramatic scenery and friendly villages. I wouldn't come here to party, but for relaxation, a spot of gentle pottering... More >

Anna and her lovely family made us very welcome and helped enhance our stay on the islands. We spent our... More >

We went to Patmos by boat from Piraeus and it took us too many hours to arrive. However, we found a nice island worth the fatigue. All beaches were very nice and the good thing is that they were never very crowded. The monastery and the cave of Agios Ioannis were very interesting, not only for the... More >
