Why We Love These Specific Spots

Kleftiko is often called the crown jewel of Milos—its limestone formations and secret caves make for unforgettable photos and stories.
Polyaigos is a rare gem, offering a quiet escape with pristine waters that are hard to find elsewhere in the Cyclades.

Consideration to Keep in Mind

Since the tour is weather-dependent, extremely windy days might lead to changes, including re-routing or rebooking without extra charge. If you’re prone to seasickness or prefer steady conditions, it’s worth noting that the high speed might be a bit much for some.
