Amorgos is
the Eastern of the Cyclades islands and
is the closest island to the Dodecanese.
Katapola is the main harbor of the island. At Katapola
is located the famous church of Katapoliani that
is built on top an acient temple to Apollo.
Aigialis is the second harbor of the island. It is
a beautiful village with maginificent beaches. Until
recently it was easier to reach Aigiali by sea, than
the road to Chora, but now the road is greatly
improved.
Chora is magical setlement and chances are that you
get caught under its charm. Small pathways, wonderful
windmills and the calm nature of another life, lost
back in the 19th century.
North of Chora built in the rock is the Byzantine
monastery of Hozoviotissa, that is an absolute must
in your itenerary.
Luc Besson made the natural beauty of Amorgos Known
to the world with his movie "The
Big Blue".
Take a tour among Amorgos
villages.
