Milos, the most beautiful of the Greek islands
Milos is a beautiful island in the Cyclades, with a stunning coastline, picturesque towns and villages and the best beaches in Greece.
With a population of just 5,000, Milos offers plenty of space and privacy to visitors. Milos is a small, isolated island, perfect for those seeking tranquility and wanting to escape the tourist crowds of Santorini and Mykonos.
Surrounded by clear, turquoise waters, and with more than 4,000 hours of sunshine per year, Milos is a real favorite.
With its fine sandy beaches, its volcanic landscape, its fishing villages, it is for me the most astonishing island in Greece and a destination of choice for those who are still looking for authenticity in Greece.
