Amorgos , with its dramatic mountain scenery and laid-back atmosphere, is attracting visitors in increasing numbers; most ferries and hydrofoils call at both Katapola in the southwest and Eyiali in the northeast - with these destinations, rather than Amorgos, on schedules - and there is a regular bus service between both ports. The island can get extremely crowded in midsummer, the numbers swollen by French paying their respects to the film location of Luc Besson's The Big Blue , although few actually venture out to the wreck of the Olympia , at the island's west end, which figured so prominently in the movie. In general it's a low-key, escapist clientele, happy to have found a relatively large, interesting and uncommercialized island with excellent walking.
