Patmos Beaches

Can anyone recommend a beach on Patmos? I know there are several, but I'm wondering which is most convenient to the location where the tenders arrive and also has convenient public transportation. Thanks for the info!!

 

This below website gives a good summary and details on the seven main beaches in Patmos.

The beach pictures there don't look as nice as what we saw in Mykonos, but the good news is that Patmos does not get the massive boat-loads of visitors. Below are some of my pictures from visiting Patmos. We did more on the major and history religious connections on this charming island.

 

THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio

Inside the church part of the Holy Monastery of St. John in the Eastern Orthodox tradition. It is part of a complex with a nice museum and art collection:

Above where you enter to see the famed cave of St. John, this art piece summarizes this history:

On Patmos, here are more from inside the church with its ceiling and around the Holy Monastery of St. John. You will see some ceiling highlights, its courtyards, bells, art treasures, etc.:
