5 Cool Beaches in Milos Island – Experience Milos With Kids Love Greece
Families looking for a Greek island that has some of the best beaches in Greece should definitely consider visiting Milos. Here’s 5 of the best beaches in Milos you can visit when there.

Sarakiniko Beach
With its almost lunar surface-like landscape, Sarakiniko Beach is one of the most famous beaches in Milos. The white volcanic rock is very unusual, and if your kids are part of the Instagram generation, they are going to love spending some time here!

Whilst incredibly photogenic, Sarakiniko can get hot and crowded. If you want to visit Sarakiniko beach with your family, we would suggest making it in the early morning and leaving before lunch time.
Shade is at a premium here, so you might want to invest in your own sun umbrella (available in local shops) and be inventive when it comes to putting it up!

Thiorichia Beach
This beach has the most unusual setting on Milos island, as it is backed by an old sulphur mine! You can reach Thiorichia Beach by boat or by 4 wheel drive, and it has a remote and almost post-apocalyptic feel to it.
The beach itself is a short stretch of sand, and not organized. So, if you make the journey to Thiorichia Beach be sure to bring your own shade and water. Kids Love Greece offers a 4 wheel drive tour of Milos which includes a stop off at Thiorichia Beach. Contact our team for more information on how to book!

Provatas Beach
The Blue Flag awarded Provatas Beach is a very organised beach with plenty of shade and beds for hire. There is also a luxury 4 star hotel right nearby, and many people choose to stay here when visiting Milos on vacation.
We think that the beach would get perhaps a little too busy during the summer months, but if you choose to stay in the hotel during your vacation, it will be right on your doorstep.

Kleftiko Beach
Last, but certainly not least, is Kleftiko Beach in Milos. Technically speaking, this isn’t really a beach but more of a bay as it’s only accessible by boat. However, it is so stunning you simply have to visit Kleftiko Beach during your time in Milos.

We’d suggest taking a Sailing Fun in Milos in order to see Kleftiko and its amazing rocks. You’ll enjoy the sailing trip around the island, and have plenty of time to swim in the crystal blue waters of the bay.

Agia Kyriaki Beach
Although perhaps as not famous as the other beaches in Milos, Agia Kyriaki Beach is actually one of the most family friendly beaches on the island.
Agia Kyriaki Beach is relatively quiet, has shallow waters, and there is also some shade with nearby trees, although you’d need to get there early during the busy months of summer. There is also a taverna nearby that offers food and drinks as well as hires beds and umbrellas at the front.

Amazing website. I am going to look through this again more carefully as we are planning a trip in August. We are going to stay in Crete. We have 3 teens–15, 18 & 18. Deciding on staying in Panormos at a house we found and love or at a hotel in Chania. We are going for a week and plan to explore Crete and not the other islands. From your experience, what do you suggest? I do not want to be too removed from things because we have teens. Curious to hear your thoughts. Thank you and look forward to reading this further.
Hello Michelle,
We cannot thank you enough for your kind words. Greece is such an amazing country to visit with kids so we are doing our best to include as much information as possible on our website.
Regarding Crete, you choose well the location as it is very strategic in terms of things to do. You have easy access to West (Chania and its beaches), to the east (Elounda and Spinalonga), Heraklion, and the Palace of Knossos but also in the south part of Crete which is breathtaking.
In one week you can do a lot of things, although be aware that Crete is very big so try to mindful of how many places you would like to visit.
