Sarakiniko Beach on Milos

Soon after breakfast this morning, Papa and I took a tender into the pretty waterfront village of Adamas, then walked to the taxi stand.  We took a taxi to Sarakiniko Beach, on the north shore of Milos. Waves and erosion have shaped grayish-white volcanic rock into shapes, caves, and bridges, creating a moonscape and one of the most photographed landscapes in Greece and the Aegean.  We thought it was beautiful!  We explored one of the long hand hewn catacombs, up, down, and all around.  Stunning!


We walked back to Adamas for lunch on the waterfront and explored the village a bit.  We like the island of Milos - laid back, slower moving, with a large protected harbor and beautiful beaches.
