Agia Anna, Beach in Amorgos, Greece
Agia Anna is a small beach on the east coast of Amorgos, Greece, known for its rocky shore and clear water. It sits below the Monastery of Chozoviotissa and is made up of pebbles and rocks, with a whitewashed chapel nearby.
The beach gained fame after scenes from the 1988 film The Big Blue were shot there. Since then, it has drawn visitors who come to see the setting and the chapel.
The beach takes its name from the small white chapel of Agia Anna that stands beside it. The chapel is a landmark for visitors, and the beach itself became known after appearing in the film The Big Blue.
There is no road to the beach, so you need to walk down a path from the parking area. Bring water and essentials, as there are no facilities, and try to arrive early or late to avoid the crowds.
A second, smaller beach with the same name lies a short walk away, reached by a path from the right side of the parking area. It has two large rocks and clear blue water.
