Milos is a volcanic island with a magnificent colorful landscape and a coastline that counts more than 40 exotic beaches. To name a few: Palaiochori, Papafragas, Gerontas, Firiplaka, Tsigrado, Plathiena. Yellow, orange, red and dazzling white rock formations are even more vibrant against the background of turquoise water. As you sail around this gem in the Aegean Sea, you’ll discover secluded coves, hidden caves, and dramatic rock formations that will leave you in awe. You will find yourself in endless beautiful beaches, surrounded by white rock formations and the deep blue Aegean sea.
Drop anchor at Kleftiko and you won’t ever want to leave! Huge white cliffs and rock formations tower out over the gorgeous clear sea. Because of how these rocks have been formed, there are lots of archways and small pools, which are fantastic for snorkeling. Beautiful colored fish can be seen everywhere at Kleftiko Beach. Because of its popularirty Kleftiko is visited by many boat day tours which normally leave from other coastal towns on the island. So, sail your motoryacht to Kleftiko early in the day or late in the afternoon to enjoy Kleftiko all to yourself. You may even spot the wild goats that roam nearby!
Also head to Sarakiniko Beach, with its otherworldly lunar landscape that will make you feel like you’ve landed on another planet. Over time the winds and waves have shaped the cliffs and rocks into unique shapes, bridges, and archways. There’s also a shipwreck to take photos of and swim out to.
With a motor yacht as your mode of transport, the possibilities for exploration are endless. For example, Gerakas beach is a stunning strip of sand backed by a huge rock formation.
Tip: Wear bright colors and get some awesome photos of you standing against the white rock and the blue sea.
Plaka, the beautiful capital of Milos, sits on top of a rock formation overlooking the sea. The traditional Greek stone pathways lead between white cottages and vibrant blue doors, with pink flowers creeping up the walls. It’s easy to get lost in the maze of streets, as they were made this way to confuse pirates!
Visiting Milos on a yacht is not just about visiting beaches not accessible by road in luxury and relaxation—it’s also an opportunity to connect with nature in a unique way. From observing rare bird species to swimming alongside playful dolphins, each moment spent on your yacht is filled with unforgettable experiences that will stay with you long after your journey ends.
