Top Things To Do When Visiting Milos
Explore the Otherworldly Beaches
Milos is known for its stunning beaches: Sarakiniko Beach has a lunar-like landscape of white volcanic rocks, Firiplaka Beach has crystal-clear waters, and Tsigrado Beach has gorgeous waters only accessible down a narrow cliffside staircase. The Milos beaches are a must-add to any Milos travel guide.
Discover the Island's Rich History
Milos has a lot of rich history. Start your journey back in time at the ancient Roman amphitheater of Milos. Then, pay a visit to the Catacombs of Milos, one of the most important early Christian monuments in Greece where you can explore underground chambers. And no trip to Milos would be complete without a visit to the charming fishing village of Klima. There are colorful fishermen's houses lining the waterfront - giving a glimpse of true island life.
Experience Milos By Boat
One of the best ways to experience the beauty of Milos is by boat, and there's no shortage of sailing excursions to choose from. Set sail on a traditional wooden boat and explore secluded coves, hidden sea caves, and gorgeous beaches inaccessible by land. See the Kleftiko rock formations - a perfect spot for snorkelers. Oh, and keep your eyes peeled for dolphins!
