If the name Milos sounds familiar, it may be because this is the island where the Venus de Milo was found. Today, there’s a replica near where it’s believed to have stood.
Fyriplaka Beach was one of my fav swim spots in Milos.
Another special sight in Milos are the colourful fishing villages. In some towns, instead of the typical blue and white houses, locals have decorated their homes in every shade of the rainbow 🌈
One of the most striking things in Milos are the white flat top cliffs and unique rock formations.
On Milos, we stayed in Pollonia, a sleepy fishing village 🐠
With its jewel-toned waters, Milos is popularly known as the “Island of Colors”.
