Milos trip planner

The result of thousands of years of volcanic activity, the island of Milos features a craggy coastline interspersed by shallow beaches. A major exporter of obsidian as long ago as the Neolithic period, the island now thrives largely due to its booming tourism sector. Turquoise waters and unusual rock formations draw big crowds to the island's coast, while its less-frequented interior retains a quieter atmosphere and clings to its traditional way of life. Hike the island's extensive network of ancient footpaths to discover relics of prehistoric settlements, early Christian catacombs, abandoned pirate lairs, and whitewashed churches precariously perched above the sea. To discover the underwater worlds of Milos, join a scuba-diving tour of the coastline. Add Milos and other destinations in Greece to your travel itinerary using our Greece trip itinerary planner.
