Itinerary

The tour begins at Adamas Port in Milos, where guests board the catamaran and meet the crew before setting sail along the island’s coastline. The first part of the journey typically follows Milos’ northern and western shores, passing volcanic rock formations, beaches, and sea caves accessible only by boat.

As the cruise continues, the boat anchors at selected swimming spots where guests can snorkel or swim in clear waters. The route then heads toward Polyaigos, a largely uninhabited island known for its exceptionally transparent sea and quiet coves, where another extended swimming stop is usually made.

During the day, a freshly prepared lunch is served onboard while the boat is anchored in a sheltered bay. After additional time for swimming and relaxation, the catamaran begins its return journey to Milos, arriving back at Adamas Port in the late afternoon or early evening.

Who is this experience best for

This cruise is best suited for travelers who want a full-day sea experience combining scenic sailing, swimming, and relaxed time onboard. It is ideal for couples, friends, and small groups who enjoy nature-focused activities and want to explore parts of Milos and Polyaigos that are difficult to reach independently. It also suits visitors who prefer a balanced mix of sightseeing, swimming, and onboard dining in a single organized experience.

Insider notes

Sea conditions around Milos and Polyaigos can influence the exact route and swimming stops, particularly near exposed caves and open-water areas. Guests should bring swimwear, sunscreen, and a towel, as most of the day is spent in and around the water. While the experience is generally relaxed, it is a full-day cruise with multiple stops, so pacing may feel structured rather than flexible. During peak season, some swimming locations may have multiple boats present, though crews typically adjust timing to reduce congestion where possible.
