First of all, it&#8217;s gorgeous, but most importantly the coastline is dotted with massive natural caves and beaches, making it a perfect spot for pilferers (and modern-day travelers!) to hide out. You&#8217;d be remiss to visit Milos without booking a sailing trip around the island to see what all the fuss is about, as many of the best beaches are only accessible by boat.\u00a0And it doesn&#8217;t have to pillage your entire budget either; there are plenty of outfitters like <strong>Mamma Maria<\/strong> that offer affordable day trips, which typically leave the port of <strong>Adamas<\/strong> at around 8-10 a.m. Some of the caves in <strong>Kleftiko <\/strong>\u2014 note the similarity to kleptomania \u2014\u00a0are even bioluminescent, which you can view on one of their snorkeling excursions.

It&#8217;s almost other-worldly staring out at the azure waters, which are a stark contrast to the swirled white volcanic rocks which make up the coastline. It&#8217;s truly a beautiful geological phenomena worth visiting the island for in and of itself.<\/p>\n<p>[\/aesop_content]<\/p>\n<p>[aesop_parallax img=&#8221;http:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/milos_kristasimmons1.jpg&#8221; parallaxbg=&#8221;off&#8221; caption=&#8221;Hanging out in Klima&#8221; captionposition=&#8221;bottom-left&#8221; lightbox=&#8221;on&#8221; floater=&#8221;on&#8221; floaterposition=&#8221;left&#8221; floaterdirection=&#8221;up&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>[aesop_content color=&#8221;#727272&#8243; background=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; columns=&#8221;1&#8243; position=&#8221;none&#8221; imgrepeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221; floaterposition=&#8221;left&#8221; floaterdirection=&#8221;up&#8221;]And of course there\u2019s theancient fishing village of <strong>Klima<\/strong>, which was once the first port of Milos.
