We arrived by kayak, and OMG. This is the thing you need to see on Milos. Otherworldly landscapes. Our kayak guide said watching the sunset here is a must-do, but unfortunately, we weren’t there for long enough. Y’all should do it, though.

This was the highlight of our Milos stay. It is a beach unlike anything I’ve seen. The landscapes are stunning, and they match perfectly with the amazing clear water below.
We went early to catch sunrise and weren’t disappointed. There were 20 other people there for sunrise, but it is large enough that everyone has their own unadulterated view. Most leave shortly after sunrise and we had the beach to ourself.
The cliff jumping is also amazing there. We swam out to scout and it is very safe - there are no underwater rocks and the water is very deep, more than 30 feet. There are several easy exits, depending on where you jump from.
Once in the water you can also swim into the sea caves and explore. There are several beautiful caves to swim in and see. The water is definitely cold but very worth it!

This is must-see on Milos. The white rock formations - some forming bridges across the blue water is breathtaking. It is almost like being on the moon - all white rock. There were young adults diving off the bridge formations. Fun to watch the divers. There is nothing else like this - it is worth the walk. We did not swim - as we had planned to go back to our resort pool, but definitely worth seeing this unique creation. Bring sunscreen and a sunhat as it is hot and sunny and there is very little shade. Make sure you walk all the way around - it may seem like the beach is ending by a small inlet pond - but keep walking until you come around to the open sea where you see lots of people swimming and diving off the bridges.

Gets very busy and the walk from the parking area felt far. Worth a visit since the rock formations are unique and the water was nice to swim in. Some areas the water was a bit dirty but cliff jumping into the water was pretty neat

DO NOT MISS THIS BEACH! Incredible experience. Took bath away, we went on a windy day so we weren’t able to enjoy the water but I’m so happy we got to see this one of a kind beach. There’s even caves to explore.

Ok, so it’s very instagrammable, so that crowd of women getting their BFs and hubbies to take their pics there is everywhere… but I don’t blame them, it’s beautiful. However, be prepared to bring your own water, snacks and/or food and towels. There is a food truck at the entrance (cash only). Also be prepared with sun protection, there’s not much shade anywhere and no place to pop an umbrella since it’s all rock. Also, saw a few people slipping around in flip flops so consider your footwear. It’s not necessarily difficult to get to, but flip flops may not be the most comfy.
There’s a cliff that’s famous that people jump from and then can get out by swimming under and out a cave or climbing up some rocks. Just watching people jump is fun too.

What a place to see. Amazing scenery that looks like postcards. We took a private bus tour and it was so worth it.
Loved every minute and would definitely do it again.

Incredible scenery! This is a must for anyone visiting Milos, it cannot be missed! Although busy as it’s a tourist attraction, I do believe it’s worth the hype. The scenery is incredible and it is like walking on the moon.

Bonjour
Sarakiniko semble incontournable ! je vois que l'accès est "facile" par bus
quelles seraient les autres plages / sites à faire autour (alogomandra beach ? tourkothalassa beach ? Mandrakia ?) en 1 journée à peine et est ce faisable/réaliste en bus, ou le scooter est impératif pour aller plus rapidement ?
merci bcp pour vos avis !

We were just at Sarakiniko Beach a week ago and my 11 year old daughter also had the unfortunate luck of being stung by what one reviewer called the “plant dragons” in the water. We took her to the hospital and they recommended a cream. It seemed to get better after 6 days and the scabs fell off but now the area seems to be swollen again and very stiff. I am wondering if anyone else had this experinence with this plant in the water at that beach and what they used to treat the injury obtained.
Thanks!

No es aconsejable puesto que los barcos que te llevan por toda la isla suelen salir 9am y llegan al atardecer. Vale la pena separar zona Norte (Sarakiniko, Plaka y Pollonia más otras playas) y el resto con el tour en barco.
