10 Budget-friendly Things to do in Milos That You Shouldn't Miss

February 14, 2022 Enedina Augsburger

Known as the "Island of Colors" thanks to its jewel-colored waters and building painted in vivid primary tones, the horseshoe-shaped island of Milos floats serenely in the Aegean Sea. It was here that the world-famous Venus de Milo statue was discovered. Though she now holds court at the Louvre, Milos has other beauties to admire. There are dozens of beaches, all different colors and all different combinations of sand, stone and shell. Explore the ancient theater, catacombs and windmills in Tripiti village, then cap off your day with a cinematic sunset.

Milos Mining Museum

Reviewed By 573dk9999 - Iowa City, United States

When the guide says we are going to a mining museum, the expectations start out low. This place was well organized and had interesting and engaging exhibits. The geology of this island is surprisingly diverse leading to it being a major source of minerals from prehistoric times to the present. Particularly heart wrenching is the plight of the island sulfur miners, who eventually worked with no pay in a futile effort to keep the mine going. Hands-on exhibits where you can touch the various minerals such as kaolin are a nice feature.

Reviewed By flaviot768 - Trieste, Italy

We choose the small beach in the left side, where all services are owned by the same family. Everything is almost perfect, one line of umbrellas/sunbeds, amazing sea , wonderfull volcano rocks with plenity of colture, good food and drinks straight to your place, friendly and smart staff. In the average the prices. The only thing wrong is that the stairs in the way back are so step.????

Reviewed By OanaBoiangiu - Bucharest, Romania

Definitely the place to be when you are in Milos. I would recommend going early in the morning if you want it to be quiet. The place is popular so it will have tourists that are taking photos, especially after 10:30 AM. Take a camera with you as you'll find many spots where you can take amazing pictures. Close to the beach you can find a food truck with beverages in case you forget to take water with you.

Church of Agios Haralambos

Reviewed By DianeVOC - Silver Spring, United States

In October, 2019, we visited Adamas, Milos, Greece, where we hiked up to see this church several times. The beautiful bell tower, and handsome church were closed the first two times we visited. Happily on our third visit we were fortunate to be able to walk through the interior as it was Saturday and several very kind women were decorating the church with flowers. The interior is richly decorated with frescoes, icons, and flowers. If you can figure out how to get in, it is well worth the visit.

Tsigrado Beach

Reviewed By 138marinax

This was one of the best beaches in milos . It's very difficult and pretty dangerous to climb down the mini cliff where there is a rope and a ladder. You better visit fyriplaka Beach and rent a cayak (only 10 euros). This way you can also visit the beaches before tsigrado. Also worth visiting for its caves where you can take beautiful photos.
