About Milos

Milos is a volcanic Cycladic island of white cliffs, sea caves and fishing hamlets, where the Venus de Milo was found in 1820.

Milos was shaped by volcanoes, and its coast is a patchwork of white, yellow and rust-coloured rock. Plaka, the hilltop capital, is a whitewashed village of winding lanes below a medieval kastro, and Adamas is the main port. A farmer found the Venus de Milo in 1820, and the statue now stands in the Louvre. Obsidian from the island was traded around the Aegean in prehistory.

Top-ranked sights in Milos: Kleftiko Beach, Sarakiniko Beach, Firopotamos Beach.
