Sarakiniko Beach, Milos

Lunar-landscape bathing

Sarakiniko Beach

Milos island has a number of sandy and rocky beaches, the most popular being Sarakiniko – created out of eroded volcanic rock, sandstone and pumice giving the beach a stark white lunar-looking landscape which starkly stands out against the blues of the Aegean sea.

It isn’t really a beach to lounge on due to its rocky landscape and lack of facilities. Whilst the young at heart can go cliff diving, many people merely come by car to stroll the cliff tops and watch sunset.

Practical Info Practical Info icon

Transport Three miles by car from Plaka, the capital of Milos.

No facilities.

Take a boat trip from the harbour for an alternative view. It’s best enjoyed late spring and early autumn, especially at sunrise and sunset for far-reaching views.
