The monastery opens daily to visitors at no cost and provides holy water and a shop with religious items. Dress code requires covering shoulders and knees when walking around the complex.
Two chapels hold the tomb and sacred relics of Saint Nektarios along with his preserved personal living quarters that visitors can view. These intimate spaces offer a rare glimpse into the private life of the saint.
