Getting from Amorgos to Nafplio

If you are heading to Nafplio from Amorgos you are making your way from the most eastern of the Cyclades to a neoclassical town on the Argolic Gulf in the Peloponnese, the first capital of modern Greece with the Venetian fortress of Palamidi above it and Mycenae, Epidaurus and Tiryns all within easy reach.

Take the ferry
