The essential Milos in 4 hours — a volcanic island unlike anything else in Greece. Start at Sarakiniko, the extraordinary lunar landscape of white volcanic rocks above a turquoise sea. Explore the medieval Kastro of Plaka with panoramic island views. Walk through the colourful fishermen’s houses of Klima — built directly into the volcanic rock at the water’s edge. See the Papafragas volcanic sea cave. Visit the ancient Christian catacombs cut into the rock. Milos rewards those who explore beyond the beaches.
