More about: Amorgos island
I went to Amorgos with my boyfriend in July. We rented a room in Hora, capital of the island; this village is so beautiful with its white houses and its labyrinth streets; it is dominated by a 13th century Venetian castle and its known as the medieval town of the island. Because Hora has been built 400 metres above sea level it offers some amazing views?very romantic.
We visited the famous Monastery of Hozoviotissa which is trademark of Amorgos and comes out of the rocks, on a precipice overlooking the sea; it is very impressive! We walk all the way up to it and were rewarded by the monks who offered us fresh fruits and rakomelo, a local drink made of strong alcohol, honey and cinnamon.
You can imagine that the way down was a lot easier after that very strong and revitalising drink.
As for the beaches, they were all very beautiful, with clean, deep blue waters and fine sand or rocks. We went to many of them among which the one of Agia Anna, which is famous because scenes of the movie Big Blue were shot there, and the lovely nudist beach of Levrossos, near Aegiali. Our entire stay was a real delight and I really hope we will manage to go back there.
