Itinerary

The cruise begins at Adamas Port, where guests board the catamaran and receive a short introduction from the crew before setting sail around the island. The route follows the coastline of Milos, passing volcanic cliffs, colorful rock formations, and historic coastal landmarks that are difficult to access by land.

Throughout the day, the catamaran makes several stops for swimming and snorkeling. Highlights typically include Kalogries Beach, the sea cave of Sykia, and Kleftiko, where towering white cliffs, caves, and crystal-clear waters create one of the most recognizable landscapes in the Cyclades. Guests have time to swim, snorkel, and explore the area while the crew prepares meals and refreshments onboard.

The cruise also visits the waters around Poliegos, an uninhabited island famous for its striking shades of blue and secluded bays. Additional swim stops may be included depending on sea conditions and the captain’s route planning. During the journey, breakfast, snacks, lunch, and drinks are served, allowing guests to relax between activities. The excursion concludes with a return sail to Adamas Port in the late afternoon.

Who is this experience best for

This cruise is ideal for travelers who want a comprehensive sailing experience that combines the highlights of both Milos and Poliegos in a single day. It is particularly well suited to couples, groups of friends, and active travelers who enjoy swimming, snorkeling, and spending extended time on the water. Visitors looking to access remote beaches and caves that cannot easily be reached by land will find this experience especially rewarding.

Insider notes

The exact route may vary depending on weather and sea conditions, particularly around the more exposed sections of the coastline. Guests should bring swimwear, sunscreen, a hat, and a towel, as much of the day is spent outdoors and in the water. Many travelers consider Poliegos and Kleftiko to be the highlights of the cruise because of their exceptional water clarity and dramatic scenery. Community reviews frequently note that boat excursions are among the best ways to experience Milos, as many of the island’s most impressive locations are only accessible from the sea.
