The cruise starts at 09:00 from the port of Adamas, where we begin our circumnavigation of Milos heading northeast, enjoying a scenic sightseeing tour of Adamas Bay. We pass by Klima, the picturesque traditional fishing village where the Venus de Milo was discovered, and continue toward Arkoudes, the impressive bear-shaped rock formations guarding the entrance of the bay. While taking photos, you’ll also learn interesting historical facts about the island as part of our guided tour.
On our way to the first swim stop in Polyaigos, we pass by Glaronisia (the Seagull Islands)—a rare geological formation made entirely of hexagonal volcanic rocks. We make a short photo stop to admire the landscape and, if conditions allow, feed the seagulls.
Our first swim stop is at Galazia Nera (Blue Waters) in Polyaigos, one of the most stunning swimming spots in Greece. Here you’ll enjoy crystal-clear turquoise waters and your first swim of the day, followed by a light breakfast on board.
The cruise continues along the southern coast of Milos, reaching Theiorychia, where the abandoned sulfur mines from the 1870s create a dramatic and otherworldly landscape. After a short photo stop, we head to Gerakas Beach, one of Milos’ most beautiful beaches, accessible only by boat. We’ll stop here for about 40 minutes to swim and relax. Upon returning to the boat, refreshments, ice-cold beers, and delicious snacks will be waiting for you.
We then sail past the famous beaches of Tsigrado and Fyriplaka, and through the bay of Gerontas, before reaching our next highlight.
Next stop is Kleftiko, the most iconic location in Milos. Its name means “place of thieves,” as it was once used by pirates as a hideout. We’ll spend about 1 hour here, giving you time to swim and snorkel through the caves and try our stand-up paddleboard. After exploring the area, a delicious BBQ lunch will be served on board.
Leaving Kleftiko, we continue along the west coast of Milos toward Sykia, the island’s largest sea cave. We’ll make a short photo stop in front of its impressive collapsed entrance and the colorful bay to the south, an old volcanic crater with emerald-green waters.
Our final swim stop is the bay of Kalogries, known for its crystal-clear turquoise waters. We’ll spend about 30 minutes swimming and snorkeling, followed by dessert on board.
On the way back to Adamas, we pass Cape Vani, an impressive 30-meter-high rock formation behind which an old 19th-century iron mine once operated. We return to Adamas port around 18:00, with the sun behind us and beautiful sunset colors marking the end of an unforgettable day at sea.

Sailing with Polco is a carefree trip. You only need to bring your personal belongings; swimsuit, towel, sunscreen, hat, and glasses to protect yourself from the strong Greek sun, your cellphone/camera.
Our yachts are fully equipped with snorkeling gear but if you have your own mask and flippers you are welcome to bring them.
Early or late in the season, a light windproof jacket might help to warm you up when the sun starts dropping.
