More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step onto a low-slung wooden boat at Agia Kiriaki, salt on the air and limestone cliffs folding outward like pages. The engine hums, the crew casts off, and the coast of Milos slides past—Firiplaka’s pale sands, Katergo’s sculpted faces—until the boat threads into the shadowed throat of Kleftiko.

History
Milos’s geology is volcanic; over centuries miners extracted obsidian and ores—Kleftiko’s caves and arches are a direct result of that volcanic rock and erosion.
Conservation
Stay clear of marine flora, avoid anchoring in seagrass beds and use reef-safe sunscreen; local operators follow seasonal limits to reduce crowding at sensitive coves.

Protect Your Skin and Eyes
Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a wide-brim hat and polarized sunglasses—sun reflects strongly off water and white rock.
