About Amorgos
​
Amorgos is a remarkably unspoiled island at the south-eastern edge of the Cyclades group, where traditional customs are still inextricably interwoven into a landscape as rich in beauty as in its history and culture. Originally inhabited by seafarers from Asia Minor in the 4th Century BC, the island now cradles people who enjoy a lifestyle that has been shaped by a varied and dramatic past. This is a place that appears untouched by time, but where the inhabitants quietly preserve one of the best kept secrets of the Aegean.
On Amorgos, you can discover secluded and remote beaches like Mouros, Plakes, Kambi, Levrossos, Psili Ammos, Mikri and Megali Vlychada and Agii Saranda which are considered to be among the best beaches on the island. Of course, there are also other popular and busy beaches like Katapola or Aegiali, located next to the two ports of Amorgos. The island’s highlight is Agia Anna beach, below the impressive 1000 year old Byzantine monastery of Chozoviotissa, where the famous film “Big Blue” was filmed.
​
Choosing the best beaches in Amorgos is no easy task, as the island boasts some of the most beautiful and scenic beaches in the Cyclades! Taking this into consideration, Aegialis Hotel & Spa has prepared a list with most beautiful beaches on the island, so that your visit to Amorgos and Greece consists of an endless beach exploration.

Travel Details​​
There are a few different options to get to Amorgos, once you get to the Piraeus Port, we will arrange transportation for you to arrive at the Aegialis Resort and Spa.
Option 1: Amorgos does not have an airport but is easily reached with daily ferries and high speed vessels. Athens International Airport (ATH) is the most convenient to arrive. Ferries start from Athens port, Piraeus and dock alternately at the two ports of Amorgos Island: Katapola and Aegiali (near to the hotel). All options for your transfer from Athens International Airport Eleftherios Venizelos to the port of Piraeus:
-
Private transfer: we are happy to help in accommodating private transfer
-
Bus: Express bus X96 leaves every 20 minutes during the day and every 40 minutes at night from the Athens International Airport Arrivals Level (between Entrance 4 and 5) to “Karaiskaki Square” in Piraeus, right outside the ferry port. The ticket costs 5.00€. The trip takes from about 1 hour and 15 minutes to 1 hour and a half.
-
Metro: The subway will take you from the airport to Monastiraki station. There you will change to line 1 (green line). The end of line 1 is Piraeus station, just outside the entrance to the ferry port. The journey time from Athens International Airport to the port of Piraeus is about one hour. Trains are every half hour (:00 and :30), with the first service departing the airport at 05:30 and the last service at 23:30.
-
Taxi: This is the most hassle-free way. The drive from the airport to the port takes 45 to 60 minutes.
Option 2: During summer season, it is possible to fly to Santorini, from where there are daily high speed vessel connections to Amorgos.
Option 3: Fly into Naxos, from here you may take a taxi outside of the Airport of Naxos Island to Chora (also known as Naxos Town), about 1km away.
-
There is a daily connection to Amorgos onboard the local ferry Express Scopelitis departing at 14:00 – arriving at the port of Aegiali on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday and at Katapola port every day, except for Sunday. This trip can be considered as a mini cruise to the Small Cyclades island cluster (Iraklia, Schinousa, Koufonisi, Donousa). The duration of the trip is 4 to 5 hours.
-
Every night at 23:00, the Blue Star Ferry departs from Naxos to Amorgos (Monday, Wednesday and Thursday to the port of Aegiali – Tuesday, Friday and Sunday to the port of Katapola). The duration of the trip is 2 to 3 hours.
-
The above connections are valid all year round, including winter period. From June to September, additional ferries and hydrofoils connect Amorgos with Piraeus, Santorini, Naxos, Paros, Mykonos, Rhodos, Milos and more islands of the South Aegean.
Option 4: Take a flight into Mykonos. From the middle of June up to the middle of September there are high speed vessels (Seajet-Superjet) running 5 times a week from Mykonos to Amorgos and back. The trip lasts approximately 2 to 3 hours
