Amorgos prepares for 40th anniversary of Le Grand Bleu filming

The Greek island of Amorgos is set to experience renewed interest next year as it marks the 40th anniversary of the filming of Luc Besson’s cult classic film, ‘Le Grand Bleu’ (The Big Blue).

As the anniversary approaches, the island is expected to attract film enthusiasts, particularly from France, as well as documentary filmmakers and students. Key locations used in the 1987 production, such as the port of Katapoli, remain central to the island's cinematic legacy.
