The aim is to upgrade the port facilities to serve more cruise ships in the near future. At the same time, through systematic actions, Patmos has gained the tributes and distinctions of international media and emerges as one of the promising names of the cruise in the Aegean for the future “says the mayor of Patmos, Lefteris Pentes.
