Xylokeratidi Anchorage

✨ Hidden gem

Xylokeratidi is a sheltered anchorage tucked into the quieter side of Amorgos, where you drop the hook and have the rugged Cycladic hillside pretty much to yourself. The isolation here is the whole point — no crowds, no buzz, just clear Aegean water and the kind of stillness that makes Amorgos special. Amorgos itself is known for the dramatic Monastery of Hozoviotissa clinging to the cliffs nearby, so you're well placed to explore one of the more striking islands in the Cyclades.
