Patmos - a place with an unmistakable Byzantine Period legacy, where Christianity continues to hold fort through its monastery and sacred structures. It was in a cave here that St. John created the exceptional text of the “Apocalypse” - a standout piece in global literature.

Skala, the port town, is overseen by the formidable monastery of the ‘Theologian’, established in the 11th century, housing a priceless collection of sacred relics, unique manuscripts, icons, jewellery, and intricate embroidery. With its valuable library, it stands as one of the wealthiest monasteries of the Christian realm. The quaint lanes lined with typical white homes, countless taverns, and the medieval settlement of Hora, boasting exquisite architectural designs, along with the local way of life and warm hospitality - collectively culminates into an unforgettable Patmian experience.
