ABOUT US

Behind Puerto Ink

Puerto Ink was founded in 2016 by two brothers, Vangelis and Michalis, from Heraklion, Crete. With a deep passion for art and craftsmanship, they started their journey with a vision to create a tattoo and piercing studio that blended creativity, precision, and professionalism.

What began as a small local studio quickly gained recognition for its high-quality artistry and customer experience. Driven by innovation and dedication, they opened their first studio in Heraklion, setting the foundation for what would become a renowned name in the industry.

In six years, they expanded internationally, opening a studio in Antwerp, Belgium, followed by Amsterdam and Athens, establishing Puerto Ink as a global brand.

Today, with a team of 35+ skilled professionals, Puerto Ink continues to grow, offering world-class tattoos, piercings, and premium jewelry while staying true to its artistic roots.
