Schedule

Boarding at the port (dep.08:00): At the port of departure, participants will present their voucher (given by VisitCrete.com) at the SEAJETS kiosk in order to receive their ferry tickets, a card referring to the right bus number in Milos and a small brochure in their own language with information about the island and the day tour.

Arrival in Milos (approx.10:20): The trip to Milos Island lasts almost 2.5 hours from Chania. At the port of Milos, staff (dressed in a SEAJETS uniform and holding signs with the bus numbers) will welcome the participants and escort them in the correct buses.

First Stop: PLAKA (1 hour 50 minutes): Our first stop is Plaka, the charming capital of Milos. Perched on a hilltop, Plaka offers breathtaking views of the Aegean Sea and a delightful blend of traditional Cycladic architecture and natural beauty. Wander through its labyrinthine cobblestone streets, lined with whitewashed houses adorned with colorful doors and vibrant bougainvillea. Discover unique handmade treasures and local delicacies in the quaint shops and tavernas.

Second Stop: SARAKINIKO (45 minutes): Next, we'll venture to Sarakiniko, a truly unique beach in the Cyclades. Its otherworldly landscape of white volcanic rock formations, sculpted by the elements, creates a mesmerizing contrast with the azure waters. Explore the natural caves and crevices, and capture stunning photos of this lunar-like paradise.

Third (last) Stop: POLLONIA (1 hour 50 minutes): Our final destination is Pollonia, a picturesque fishing village nestled on Milos' northeastern coast. This idyllic spot boasts a beautiful sandy beach, inviting waterfront tavernas serving the freshest seafood, and cozy cafes where you can relax and soak up the authentic Greek atmosphere. The traditional white-washed architecture and crystal-clear waters create a postcard-perfect setting. Pollonia offers a glimpse into the heart of Cycladic life and is undoubtedly one of Milos' most captivating village.

Departure from Milos (approx.16:40): The trip to Chania lasts almost 2.5 hours from Milos island.

Arrival in Chania (approx.19:00): Return to Chania, arriving back at the port around 7:00 PM, with memories of Milos' unique landscapes and charming villages to last a lifetime.
