3Amorgos

Scanning the Cyclades on a map, the last one you come across from Piraeus is perhaps the charm with which you have to confront yourself at least once in your life. Amorgos rises dramatically from the seabed of the Aegean and stretches like a solitary dragon for over 30km – blending the best of the culture, architecture, landscapes and beaches of an entire archipelago.

Amorgos is a noble, and manages to preserve its timeless atmosphere even in high season. it is not a wild party island, but rather a place for meditation and admiration, where you can walk among well-marked paths and swim in beaches that borrow colors from the sky and clouds. The Meltemi wind, can in winter lash out without mercy, but in summer always allows a sheltered coast to enjoy its wonderful sea. Despite have such a small population, Amorgos is in fact the true heart of Cycladic culture – the refinement of the beautiful Chora, some incredibly wild and isolated bays, and the incredible Chozoviotissa monastery. You will not want to leave!
