From our local specialist

Tree Doorway
"Spend time getting to know the main town of Patmos, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with amazing views, an awe-inspiring monastery and pretty, maze-like alleys with a good selection of cafés and tavernas. For nightlife, head down to Skala, the harbour town below."
