If you are on holiday in Greece on Patmos, do not miss the daily boat trip from Skala in the morning, accompanying you for most of the day between theMarathi, Arki islands and the Tiganaki abay.

At the port of Skala you will only have to choose about the excursions, there are all prices, we give you some information about the islands you can visit then you see the one that inspires you the most.

First stop Marathi, a small island. There are no roads, there is nothing just a beautiful beach, a restaurant and so much peace. The sea is a fairy tale and if you want you can stay there all day, lounging in the sun and enjoying only the sounds of nature.

Arki second stage. Island also small, small and silent and the only sounds are those of the wind and the cicadas. The little square has just three taverns and you can stop for a fresh drink or for the more daring a glass of iced ouzo. Arki is inhabited by about 50 people, has a sea of fear, arid hills with a lunar landscape where for walkers I can be ideal, and quiet beaches reachable only on foot since even here zero roads.

Third stage but only for a matter of convenience for the excursion is Tiganakia. It is a beautiful bay in the southern part of the Arki islet where the water is crystal clear and of a turquoise color that seems almost fake. The seabed is immediately deep and the currents at times a bit fortine, but impossible not to dive and take a bath. A natural pool of amazing beauty and strangely with not particularly cold water.

In short, to tell you dear travelers, try to believe because as long as you will not see for yourself it will be impossible for you to understand what we are talking about.
