Central and Southern Amorgos, Greece


Approaching Katapola, the "big" port of Amorgos
(as opposed to Aegiali where we stayed, which is the little port)


"Downtown" Katapola, harborfront


The part of Katapola on the opposite side of the harbor


Everywhere you go in Greece, there are lots of GOATS.
They are not at all afraid of cars, either, so watch out!


The long and winding road to Agia (Saint) Anna


The impossibly blue water of Agia Anna


Small chapel at Agia Anna


Swimmers (some nude) at Agia Anna


More swimmers at Agia Anna


The approach to the famous Hozoviotissa monastery above Agia Anna


Hozoviotissa was built in 1088 and is still inhabited by four Greek Orthodox monks.


Shipwreck

The ubiquitous Greek cypress tree


The island farmers eek what they can from the
harsh land by building terraces on which to plant.


A nice house in the middle of
nowhere flying the Greek flag


Secluded beach we stumbled across


Deb after visiting the little chapel on the beach


The interior of the little chapel...


...with typical icons and perpetually-burning candle.
These tiny chapels dot the Greek countryside and are rarely locked.


The best snorkeling was at the southern tip of the island.
The water was ridiculously clear!
