Grias Pidima

A well known beach, long and sandy, with a huge vertical rock as its trademark, set below the Castle Faneromenis. According to the legend, an old woman who betrayed the Venetians to the Turks back in the 16th century, jumped off the castle because of her regret and turned into a rock (the name of the beach means “the old woman’s jump”).

Ahla

Probably the island’s most beautiful beach, isolated and not easy to reach. The scenery is hard to forget: Tiny pebbles, gorgeous waters and a river that flows into the sea, part of the area’s wetland. No amenities at hand.

Mouros

One of the most beautiful beaches on Amorgos. It’s worth descending a path in order to reach it (also, the views from here are fantastic). It’s surrounded by rocks and features sand, pebbles and crystal blue waters, as well as two underwater caves.

Levrosos

Situated near Egiali, this sandy beach with lovely blue waters is also popular to nudists. A path will lead you to the neighboring beach of Psili Ammos (small, quiet, not organized).

Agia Anna

Small rocky beach, with a picturesque tiny church overlooking the “big blue”.

Dragonera

Rocky, beautiful organized beach, where you can enjoy the shadow of pines.

Chalikiada

Isolated, pebbly, with deep blue waters, a nudists’ and free campers’ haven. Difficult access (you have to climb down a steep cliff). Supplies necessary.

Perdika

Quiet beach with pebbles, found at the picturesque village of the same name, with tavernas nearby.

Aeginitissa

Relatively small and sandy, with a lively and cozy beach bar-restaurant, this is youngsters’ favorite.
