The southwestern-most of the islands in the Cyclades group, Milos is a striking volcanic land of steep cliffs and glittering Aegean waters. Whitewashed churches cling to the hilltops, whilst charming villages with brightly painted shutters sit clustered around pretty ports, perfect for laid-back holidays in the sunshine. Popular with families, Milos is also a favourite of heritage aficionados, who revel in its fascinating history. There’s a great choice of accommodation options on the island, and the best places to stay in Milos are small, characterful and often family-run.
Milos’ largest harbours are at Adamantas and Pollonia; base yourself near one of these hubs for lively eateries and cafés, as well as the chance to arrange sailing trips, hire sea kayaks, or to pick up fresh produce on market day. To delve into the island’s history, head to the Mining Museum, or visit some of its striking churches, including Korfiatissa Church, Holy Trinity Church at Adamas and the Panagia Thalassitra Church. There are also fascinating archaeological sites on the island, and a labyrinth of early Christian catacombs. The Venus de Milo — now at the Louvre — was discovered in Milos, as were the Poseidon of Melos and the Asclepius of Milos.
Milos’ other draw is its sensational beaches, thermal springs and sparkling swimming spots, often framed by white cliffs. Kleftiko and Sarakiniko are glorious, as is the open-topped Sykia Cave, whilst Tsigrado and Firiplaka beaches will delight sunbathers. Boat trips to uninhabited Polyaigos Island also come highly recommended. Speak to the teams at the best places to stay in Milos to arrange day charters for your group!
