Sarakiniko

Milos


Sarakiniko's meringue-like rock formations and caves attract scores of budding photographers, even in winter. The sandy beach is tiny but there's a deep channel that's perfect for swimming, and room to spread out on the rocks. It's reached by a good sealed road, with parking at the end. Buses head here from Adamas in summer (four daily).
