Almost the entirety of the island's rugged, hard-to-reach western region falls under the safeguard of the EU's Natura 2000 network.
The optimal way to discover this area is by embarking on an enlightening full-day tour in a 4x4 off-road vehicle, led by an informed local guide. You'll have the opportunity to visit a dormant volcano and gain knowledge about its structure, spot migratory birds at the Achivadolimni wetlands and hike through striking rust-red caves at a deserted manganese mine in Cape Vani. After these adventures, you can refresh yourself at the secluded, sandy Agathia beach.
A specially curated excursion takes place right in the heart of the Natural Reserve in western Milos. This area, protected by the Natura 2000 Environmental Programme, is a distinctive and unspoiled Cycladic ecosystem teeming with dramatic landscapes abundant in wildlife and plant life. The excursion offers a journey through time, unveiling scenic volcanic locations, forgotten chapels, deserted 19th-century mines, invigorating thermal hot springs and swimming in secluded beaches with expansive coastline and crystal-clear waters. The tour also includes a lunch break in a visually appealing area by the waterfront.
