Milos

Amidst the unspoiled beaches of the Greek island of Milos, travelers can find extraordinary culinary delights and experiences with even more spectacular views. Milos is a breath of fresh air after experiencing the excitement (and chaotic tourism) of glitzy Santorini and Mykonos. Locals are intermixed with visitors throughout the island in an authentic, unhurried experience that truly brings out the best of Greek culture, cuisine, and landscape. To experience the best culinary scene on the island, I recommend staying the first few nights in the hilltop town of Plaka, followed by the remainder of your stay in the quaint seaside town of Pollonia.

Milos, a volcanic island in the Cyclades, is a hidden gem that offers breathtaking landscapes, crystal-clear waters and a unique blend of natural beauty and rich history. From the moment I arrived by ferry from Crete, I was captivated by the island's charm. This island has some of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen! Highly recommend visiting!

If you're dreaming of a Greek island getaway off the beaten path (kind of), look no further than Milos. Nestled in the heart of the Aegean Sea, Milos is bursting with beautiful beaches, rich history, and authentic charm. It’s a different pace than Greece's more commonly visited islands, but there are so many great things to include in your Milos travel guide.

When most people are planning a trip to the Greek islands, Santorini and Mykonos are usually the first destinations that come to mind. While both are beautiful in their own ways, the lesser-known island of Milos should not be looked over. It’s less crowded and has a more relaxed vibe, without the high-end price tag. If I could go back to one Greek island over and over again, this would be it!

Milos is a truly magical destination. A Greek island that is starting to get some hype, but still maintains a local authentic vibe. The bluest blue waters and some of the most unique beaches on earth make this the perfect spot to spend three days or forever.

Sifnos, just a 2.5-hour ferry ride from Athens, is a captivating island with a collection of picturesque villages that are perfect for exploration. It holds a special place in my heart, as it's where I got married — at a church renowned for a miraculous event that is said to have occurred there. The island also boasts some of the most stunning sandy beaches I've ever visited, offering the perfect setting for relaxation and adventure. Beyond its natural beauty, Sifnos is celebrated for its exceptional gastronomy. Known for its delicious beans and the unique way they prepare and cook meat, the island is a food lover’s paradise. With its rich history, breathtaking landscapes and mouthwatering cuisine, Sifnos is a destination that will leave a lasting impression on anyone who visits.

Milos has amazing landscapes, breathtaking views, charming towns and crystal clear water. There's so much to discover here, you can stay at least a week and not get bored. Why hop around on ferries and planes when you can spend that time relaxing and enjoying the way of life on the islands?
