Milos: The Must-Do Activities

Milos: What to do when you get there?

Discover one of the gems of Greece's Cyclades - Milos! This island of unparalleled beauty is known for its emerald green waters and picturesque fishing villages. Thanks to its volcanic origins, Milos is also characterized by its unique white rock formations and beaches.

In addition, Milos is also where the famous statue of the 'Venus of Milo', which is displayed at the Louvre, was originally found. If you happen to visit Milos, don’t forget to pass by Kleftiko, Sarakiniko, Katergo, and Papafragas, where pirates used to hide in the Middle Ages.

How to Get There
Travelling to Milos is easy! There are frequent direct flights from Athens to Milos, or you can travel by ferry, from the port of Piraeus.

When to Visit
The summer is an ideal time to visit Milos, as it is the perfect spot for swimming, snorkelling, and relaxing. The season starts in May and finishes in late September, early October. It is busiest in July and August but not nearly as much as other islands in the Cyclades. From May to June and from September to October the island has fewer guests.

What to Do
If you are one of the lucky ones to visit Milos, taking part in a sailing cruise or boat is one of the best ways to explore the island and explore the incredible beaches and spots that are otherwise inaccessible. In addition, your knowledgeable guide and Captain will share the island's myths and history along with the picturesque landscape from the crystal-clear waters.

Due to high winds we had to start from the south side of the island and couldn't set the sails. However, the captain and crew more than made up for it with their friendliness. Sailed over to the Blue lagoon and swam, then back to another location for more swimming. Then off to the pirate caves to swim and finally to a nice beach on the northwest side of the island. All throughout the day we were well fed with a breakfast of fresh fruit and pastries. What I thought was lunch was a spread of breads topped with feta or another paste, pieces of bread upon which one could put anchovies, tomatoes and cucumbers and fava spread or another delicious spread. However, that was just a precursor as the then grilled chicken and served us a bountiful lunch of chicken, potatoes salad and a Greek style salad with bread. Finally a little later the served cups of yogurt with chocolate and a crumble topping. There was plenty of water, soft drinks and beer available. It was just a delightful day.
If you enjoy being on a catamaran and want to swim in incredible spots, this tour is for you! And the crew is really fantastic…authentic Greeks that meet you invite you in their home (their catamaran)
