Sarakiniko beach in Milos
Sarakiniko is the most popular beach on Milos, and it is located on the north side of the island. Sarakiniko is one of the most beautiful beaches in all of Greece due to its crystal clear water and sandy bottom. The water is not very deep, allowing you to swim as far as you want. The beach is also ideal for sunbathing, as it has many shade trees that provide relief from the sun’s rays.
Papikinou beach

Papikinou has a small pebble beach which makes it an ideal swimming spot for families with children who want to get involved in an activity other than lying on their towels and reading a book. The pebble beach also makes it easier for disabled people or elderly people who are not able to walk far without being tired or injured by the sharp rocks under their feet.
Alogomandra beach
Alogomandra Beach is a small island beach located about 5 km from Milos town center. Alogomandra beach has attracted many tourists due to its crystal clear water and white sand, although it is not as popular as other beaches such as Tsigrado or Skala Sidera (Skiathos).
Tsigrado beach
Tsigrado beach is another popular tourist destination on Milos island, although it is not as famous as Alogomandra beach or Skala Sidera (Skiathos), which are more popular among tourists as they are more accessible by car and bus than on foot (at least in summer). However, Tsigrado beach has become very popular in recent years due to its spectacular view of the Mount Athos mountain range and clear water with white sand.
