Patmos Guide

Patmos Ferry Port

Patmos is one of the northernmost islands belonging to the Dodecanese island group, and is one of the many islands laying to the east of the Greek mainland. Many ferry routes depart the port, heading to many other Greek islands and are supplied by three ferry companies.

What is there to do in Patmos?

Most famous for being the setting for the Book of Revelation, Patmos still maintains its spirituality among the modernisation inevitably caused by the growing tourism industry. The harbour attracts the main block of tourists, especially in the warmer months where the restaurants offer picturesque views whilst serving delicious sea food fresh from the waters. To form a taste of the traditional values associated with Patmos, head to the surrounding villages that provide an insight into the island’s history whilst basking in the warm, welcoming atmosphere. After exploring the history of Patmos, it is worthwhile heading to the coastline to enjoy the golden sands and azure blue waters that encompass the island. Psili Ammos Beach is the most popular with visitors, offering a particularly mountainous landscape that is perfect for embarking on a leisurely stroll under the afternoon sun. The entire island is littered in challenging walking trails and steep hills, so it’s the perfect place to escape the stress of the modern world.

How do visitors get around Patmos?

Patmos is fairly small so it is possible to cover much of the island by foot. Alternatively, there are taxis readily available.


Kos Guide

Kos Ferry Port

One of the most notoriously popular islands in Greece, Kos rests on the Aegean Sea among many other small islands. Kos boasts stunning beaches, both busy and secluded, rugged coastlines and delicious authentic Greek restaurants, however, it has become most well-known to the public for its intense nightlife. Millions of young holidaymakers from around the globe, but typically Europe, flock there for the constant parties, cheap alcohol and budget accommodation. Away from the party strip, Kos does have more serene areas that will be of great interest to visitors who enjoy cultural and historical landmarks. There are several remains of Greek ruins dotted around the island, as well as highly regarded museums surrounded by lush greenery – a free and relaxing way to spend the day. In the evening there are plenty of restaurants along the beach offering delicious food next to the peaceful sounds of the ocean. In and around the port area are several travel offices and sales reps trying to promote their daily excursions. For those wishing to try their hand at jet-skiing or riding a speedboat it provides a convenient way to organise the holiday. For visitors hoping for peace and quiet, the port is probably best to be avoided. Ferry routes from the port head all over the country of Greece, including the capital city of Athens, which may offer a pleasant change of pace. There are also crossings to popular island groups and Bodrum in Turkey.
