Milos Geography

Milos is a rugged volcanic island on the southwestern edge of the Cyclades. A broad natural harbor opens from the northwest, with Adamas below the higher village of Plaka.

Milos Geography

Why go

The harbor and hills give Milos more than one kind of excursion. Adamas is the arrival point and a base for the coast; Plaka rises above it; the ancient town lay nearer the harbor entrance around Tripiti and Klima. Volcanic rock also explains the island's contrasting shorelines and obsidian history.

Useful to know

  • Treat the harbor villages and the more distant coves as separate outings when planning a day.
