Top 9 Geologic Formations in Cyclades, South Aegean

March 24, 2022 Terina Blouin

The Cyclades is a group of Greek islands with beautiful, white sandy beaches, rugged mountains and lush valleys. Glamorous Santorini and Mykonos attract the jetset, while lesser-known isles, such as Milos and Naxos, are the perfect places for beach lovers. Ruins, including the 11th-century Dorian settlement and volcanic ash-preserved Ancient Akrotiri in Santorini, amaze those with a bent for ancient history. Sifnos' cuisine wins it admirers. Hydrofoils, ferries and catamarans connect the islands.

Skaros Rock

Skaros was considered the most important of Santorini's five castle fortresses. The rock was inhabited in medieval times, because the fortress constructed there offered protection from pirates.

This looked pretty daunting at first but it wasn’t bad and was well worth it. The views from the top are amazing! There is some actual climbing you have to do at the end to get to the top but if I can do it anyone can lol. Be sure to bring water and wear good sturdy sneakers or hiking shoes. Some people had on flip flops and weren’t able to climb the part at the end to get to the top.

At the western end of the cape, next to Pori beach. Greece

Papafragas Cave

Reviewed By atarar - Los Angeles, United States

This is a MUST go to beach on Milos...it is visually stunning and very easy to get in and out of...There is a small walk from your car and easy access into this beautiful water that is surrounded by cliffs. It is a great beach for floating...extremely calm and warm...it is a very small beach so don't expect anything organized..you literally throw your towel on a rock and go in but it is a fabulous experience that you shouldn't miss
