I had heard some very good words about Patmos in Greece so I decided to take my daughter and go to see by myself.
We took the boat from the port of Piraeus, in Athens, and arrived in the small island of the Dodecanese. I loved it at once. The small port was adorable and had a charming settlement built around it. We found a room in the capital of the island, the lovely village called Hora or Patmos town. It is built around an imposing monastery called the Monastery of Saint John and is full of prestigious mansions, whitewashed houses, flowered yards, snow white chapels, small shops and cafes and narrow alleys. A real delight.
My little girl was thrilled by the food and by the crystalline waters and I enjoyed being caressed by the rays of the Mediterranean sun on the numerous, great beaches of the island (available only on the eastern coast, the west coast being rocky, windy and hard to reach).
I think that I made a very good choice for our holiday?s destination and I recommend it to everyone.
