Its extension reaches 121 sq. km and the length of its shores 112 km. Amorgos' ground is rocky and hilly. The rough beauty of the mountains and the green valleys give the island a unique beauty. Its beaches are the most clean in Aegean Sea. The natural beauty along with Aegean blue southening the hot sand, create a dreamy scenery away from routine. The island has two natural ports. One of them is in Katapoles gulf and the other in Aegiali. Due to the fact that it is across Ion towns (Efessos, Alikarnassos, Militos) made it the first station of Ion tribes that went to Cyclades islands.
