The Panagia Hozoviotissa Monastery on the island of Amorgos, Greece
Most visitors to Amorgos come for the architecture and culture rather than to soak up sun at the beach. The Panagia Hozoviotissa Monastery is open for tours, and offers spectacular views of the Aegean Sea while immersing tourists in the 11th-century comforts of the monastery. Hike the rocky coast of Amorgos or head inland to one of the tiny villages for a taste of the quiet life.
