Milos @ 10 perfect Greek island holidays April 12th, 2013 We were happy to read an article on Guardian by Rachel Dixon about the idyllic islands with gorgeous beaches of Greece. Milos was one of them. Why? This volcanic island has a spectacular lunar landscape of red, brown and white rocks, and around 70 equally colourful beaches: white, gold, red and grey. There are pretty whitewashed fishing villages and more rugged mountain settlements. What to do Visit the ancient theatre, catacombs and windmills in Tripiti, where the Venus de Milo statue was found; take a caïque (fishing boat) tour of the island's coves; go to Plaka, the former capital and a great spot to watch the sunset; take in as many beaches as time allows, such as eerie, moonlike Sarakiniko.
