Detailed itinerary

Sailing across the coastline, leaving behind us Milos bay, we will pass by the traditional fishing villages of Skinopi, Klima, Areti and Fourkovouni with the colourful little houses - called "Sirmata"- built by the sea side. Then, we will visit Arkoudes, a complex of lava rocks, which takes its name by its characteristic shape, a bear.
Opening the sails, we are heading to the impressive Cape Vani and our first stop for swimming, the natural bay of Kalogries, ideal for diving from the catamaran in its transparent waters.

Follows the stunning cave of Sikia, where we will enjoy the view and you will be able to see the characteristic hole in its roof as well as the entrance of the cave.

Our next 2 hours stop for swimming will be the famous old pirates bay of Kleftiko with its numerous caves, its white rocks and transparent waters ! Our crew will guide you to the best caves to swim and snorkel to. You will discover a wonder of colours and rock formations underwater. A well-deserved lunch will be served after your swim, cooked by our crew on board and full of amazing surprises !

Continuing our adventures, will follow the majestic beach of Gerakas and its hot spring and the colourful beach of Firlingos.

Finally, we will pass by the abandoned Sulphur Mines and sail towards our last swim : the amazing bay of Galazia Nera, in Poliegos ! There, the geological formations created a perfect setting for a lagoon, where the waters are extra transparent and even bluer than in any other place around Milos.
