🏝️Explore the two islands in the Aegean Sea!
➔ One of the most popular destinations for pilgrims is undoubtedly Patmos! It was in the Cave of the Apocalypse that St John heard the voice of God giving him instructions to write the Book of the Apocalypse.
The main town and harbour is Skala, where the white houses and lush nature make a perfect picture. This island is not only chosen by pilgrims, but also by many tourists for its tranquillity and fantastic beaches.
Another place not to be missed is the Chora, a charming medieval village perched on a hill. Here you will find the main services such as tavernas and craft shops. We recommend a visit to the Monastery of St John, a Unesco World Heritage Site, and the nearby Ecclesiastical Museum.
The beaches are another highlight of this paradise. In the northern part you will find the beautiful Didimes, the twin beaches, surrounded by nature, wild and with crystal clear sea!
➔ In the northern part of the Aegean Sea you will find an island completely different from the previous one, the island of the god of fire, Limnos! Due to its volcanic origin, part of the island has a drier landscape, with many hot springs of radioactive water, where you can enjoy your holiday in total relaxation.
The island is also famous for its lush nature and fertile land, which its inhabitants have been able to cultivate since ancient times, producing good wine, excellent olive oil and the famous honey, thanks to its flowery pastures.
The port of the island is Myrina, the main town, where you can visit the interesting archaeological museum, full of ancient finds discovered on the island. This corner of paradise is chosen for its tranquillity and beautiful beaches, both wild and equipped. The most famous are Fanaraki or Kaminia. As for gastronomy, the island offers its tourists the delicious traditional dishes, using local raw materials, they will propose you fish dishes combined with local cheeses.
