Milos

Greece

The volcanic-beach island. Sarakiniko's moonscape, Kleftiko's boat-only sea caves, Tsigrado's rope-descent beach. Less crowded than Santorini, more dramatic geology, half the prices.

When to go

From the 2026 climate study, not the live forecast.
RecommendedAvoid

Milos is drier than the rest of the Cyclades and reliably sunny May through October. Sea crosses 21°C in mid-June. The west-coast beaches require a boat — book a sailing day trip from Adamas (the harbour town) for €60–90 per person. Limestone and sulphur make the snorkelling distinctive.
