Klima: Picture- perfect fishing village that sits remotely on the coast only minutes from Plaka. Instantly recognizable by its long row of whitewashed buildings, all with cheerfully colored boat garages called syrmata . Can you guess why each syrmata is painted a different color? First correct guess wins a special surprise!

Nowadays, many have been converted into stylish stand- alone suites - private lodging.
Sounds like a sweet romantic getaway to us! Hmmm...

Mandrakia; The most beautfiul traditional fishing village in Milos. A sleepy fishing village built around a tiny circular harbor with colorful boat garages built into the sides of cliffs A tiny church Zoodokos Pighi overlooks the village, and the restaurant Medusa, which is a must go to!


(A bit of a tourist magnet, but whenTracie was there this past late September...she almost had it to herself.)


Trypiti:

Just across from Pollonia Village is this petite isle! The place to go for secluded, near deserted beaches with wide swathes of white sand and crystalline water.

However, it is filled with lively tavernas and cafes, shops, churches and two museums.

Plaka is the capital of Milos and one of the most picturesque places to visit on Milos, with traditional Cycladic architecture. It is located north of the Gulf of Milos, and covers the sides of a hill.
You’ll find fabulous restaurants nestled in the quaint cobblestone streets, plenty of shopping, and can explore the Minoan culture at its museums.

Make sure you stop by the Archaeological Museum to see a copy of the Aphrodite (Venus) of Milos statue The original found close to the Ancient Theatre of Milos, resides in the Louvre!

Perched on the top of the hill, just above Plaka is the Venetian Kastro (Castle) of Milos ...a must-see! Time permitting, stay for the sunset!

Adamas, sometimes referred to as Adamantas, is the main port of Milos, and welcomes all the ferries coming in from Athens or other islands. It is the cultural and commercial center of the island, as well as one of its largest settlements, with over 1300 permanent residents. It has been designed in such a way that there is no pollution!

Traditional Cycladic architecture with whitewashed houses reflecting on the shimmering waters of the Aegean Sea.
