Teil von Dodecanese, Greece
Take the ferry to Patmos, an island in Greece’s Dodecanese where a sheltered harbour and whitewashed hilltop villages set the scene for your stay. Skala, the island’s harbour town on the eastern coast, is a useful base for exploring the waterfront and reaching other parts of the island. Just to the south, Chora rises above the coast around the Monastery of Saint John, offering a different setting of narrow lanes and views across the Aegean. Explore ferry options to Patmos and book a crossing that fits your holiday.

Ferry Travel to Patmos
Travellers reach Patmos, a Greek island in the Dodecanese, by sea, arriving at Skala, its main port and the starting point for exploring the island. Staying in Skala keeps your accommodation close to the ferry arrival point, with shops and places to eat around the harbour. For the hilltop village of Chora and the Monastery of Saint John the Theologian, you still arrive at Skala and continue inland rather than choosing a different port. The same applies to the seaside settlements of Grikos, southeast of Skala, and Kambos, to the north. Your choice of base therefore depends on whether you prefer the convenience of the harbour, Chora’s historic setting or a stay nearer the beaches, rather than on where your ferry docks.
Within a wider Dodecanese itinerary, nearby Lipsi and Leros are geographically natural destinations to consider alongside Patmos. Keeping your island choices close together makes for a more compact journey than extending south towards Kos and Rhodes, though proximity alone does not determine how conveniently ferry departures fit together. Each additional island also means another accommodation change and travel day, so a longer stay on Patmos gives you more uninterrupted time to explore beyond Skala and Chora. Once you have chosen between a single-island stay and a wider journey, compare ferry options for your intended dates before fixing the order of your overnight stops.
