Tips for the Mykonos–Amorgos Ferry
- Cable or combination luggage locks sold at airports offer minimal real security but do deter casual interference; a proper padlock is better.
- Photography from the deck is excellent – the golden hour light on island whitewashed buildings as you arrive is hard to match.
- Air conditioning inside Greek ferries can be set very cold, especially in summer – keep a light layer in your day bag even in hot weather.
- In Amorgos, you’ll find dramatic landscapes, superb hiking trails, and the iconic Hozoviotissa Monastery clinging to a sheer cliff face above the sea. The island gained international fame as the filming location for Luc Besson’s film The Big Blue.
