4Amorgos – The Island of the Deep Blue

Amorgos gained some fame thanks to the film The Big Blue, yet it remains refreshingly authentic. Known for its dramatic cliffs and the iconic Hozoviotissa Monastery perched high above the sea, Amorgos is perfect for hikers and seekers of raw beauty.

Off season, its trails—lined with herbs and wildflowers—are cool and peaceful. The island’s herbal teas and raki provide warmth in autumn evenings after days of exploration.
