Located in the Dodecanese group of islands of the Aegean, Patmos is considered by many to be the secret gem of the Aegean.

Its main town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, while the entire island offers truly beautiful village settlements, scenic beaches, elegant restaurants and traditional tavernas. Its unique scenery and island tranquility inspired Forbes Magazine to describe Patmos as the most idyllic place to live in Europe!
