8Milos: A Geological Wonderland of Fiery Reds and Whites

Part of the Cyclades, Milos is a volcanic island renowned for its otherworldly landscapes and colorful coastal formations.

The famous Sarakiniko beach features stark white rock formations, while Kleftiko’s dramatic sea caves offer brilliant contrasts between the sea’s aquamarine hues and the ivory cliffs. Milos’ mining history is evident in the multi-hued rocks at Paliochori beach, where iron-rich minerals create dazzling reds, oranges, and yellows along the shoreline.
