“Greece has many incredible beaches, but one island has been described as a ‘secret paradise’ ideal for a break in the winter sun: Milos. Visitors can explore popular spots without battling the crowds, making it easy to soak in the beauty of the landscapes and of Greek history, while the warm, comfortable climate is ideal for sightseeing.”
With this complimentary article, British Express describes the “Isle of Colors” as an ideal destination even in winter, thanks to its variety of interests.
The honor refers to its rich history, natural beauty and unique geological features, citing a corresponding article in the Scottish newspaper the Daily Record which also states:
“Despite its small size, Milos is an island of extraordinary beauty. An hour’s drive from north to south reveals a wealth of attractions, including the lively fishing village of Klima, the Milos Mining Museum and some truly spectacular beaches. With temperatures reaching around 23 degrees Celsius in October and minimal rainfall, it’s an ideal autumn getaway. The island of Milos has its own airport, offering regular flights to mainland Greece.”
In both tributes there are extensive references to Plaka and the island’s beaches, even the lesser-known ones like Agathia, “a golden crescent with shallow turquoise waters”.
