Paleochori Studios Milos

... we managed to get a shot of me jumping off ten+ meter cliffs into the ocean. Mirna conquered her fear of heights and jumped of a very large rock, without screaming. We then just lay around in the sun, and fell deeper in love with Milos. Besides the heavenly water, and sparkling beaches there is, how shall i put it, cheese. Yesterday we ate the best grilled and spicy goats cheese. And for a couple cursed with lactose intolerance we can proudly say it was worth it.

... you get half way down the road is built into a cliff with sheer rock walls on one side and a massive cliff drop on the other. If you commit to going down the last half mile (which we did) then there is no way to turn around until you get to the bottom.

Once we got to the last quarter mile strecth, the road changed from dirt to old concrete (for traction). They used concrete on that part because the road then then turned into the steepest paved drop we have ever seen for a road ...

... excellent. We loved Matsata and had it on several occasions. It’s one of the rare unique items we have found throughout the Greek islands.

In the evenings we would get cleaned up and head to a very nice and very upscale little hotel called Anemomilos. They had the best view on the island for watching the sunset and they had a very chic and hip pool bar patio where you could enjoy the sunset while having a nice cocktail. We went ...

... tourists Manolis told me that he spent most of his life on the sea. As a sailor he went to many interesting ports around the world. I told him that I was born in Rumania; he immediately mentioned the port of Galatz and another port I can't recall. I told him that Rumania is not a country, it's a profession. His English was not that good , so I had to tell the joke again in sign language, only then he understood , as a proof of it he gave a laugh that ...

... wine to your table - Accept it . don't drink it to fast. As soon you finish they will send you another round. You can re-tribute by sending some bear to their table - soon you will be siting with the Piraeus ex-seaman who can spend hours telling you ( in English ) about all the ports etc. etc. they have visited during their life of travels. Don't even think to go there is you are in a hurry or do not have patience to talk about ...

... time to get some sun and lots of cooling down after in the clear blue sea. We highly recommend this beach for some total rest and relaxation.

Katergo Beach:

From the northest tip of the island, we then took an adventurous journey to go all the way south to the beautiful Katergo Beach. We parked our ATV at a safe place and began our journey to this hard-to-reach beach. I ...

... a donkey along our journey, studied the interesting formation of the characteristic stone walls and stopped for photos at a little village church.

Here are some photos to do the talking :



Vorina Bay:

After having a good swim (for Argi) / a satisfying dip (for me) and rest plus lots of sun at Agios Nikolaos, we walked back to Angali to take a bus to another beach called ...

... thumping headache in toe l managed to climb onto the bus which took us on our Beach hopping tour around the island of Milos. I was so glad that l made it onto this tour, l really pushed myself to do it as l had heard that Milos had some of the most beautiful and unusual beaches one can ever see....and it sure did! The islands beaches are unique due to the islands volcanic origin where years of volcanic activity and rich mineral deposits have created an island of colors and ...

Today we decided to rent a car! It is so easy to rent thing abroad, we gave them our expired driver license and they thought nothing of it.haha. We did some off roading down some really hairy dirt paths that went right along the cliffs right down to the ocean, had the best time just driving around and exploring. So then decided that we want to drive ...

Hello again. Once again, this is going to be a short one because we are in demand and must keep up appearances. We are still in beautiful Milos. We are dark and very relaxed. I am enjoying this. Andreas's Pappou and Yiayia organised a boat cruise to certain parts of the island unreachable by road. The Yacht carried 10 passengers, all whom were very well looked after by Captain Yiannis. We were taken to a beach where the boat anchored and we jumped off into the crystal clear water ...
