Milos & the Kleftiko sea caves
A full day west to Milos — limestone caves, the white cliffs of Kleftiko and a sand slope down to the sea.
For a full day, point west to Milos. It's a bigger, stranger island than Sifnos — volcanic, mineral-streaked, its west coast a Natura 2000 reserve of white cliffs and sea caves. The trip rounds the famous Kleftiko stacks and, sea permitting, the sand slope you can slide down into the water. It's the longest day A La Mer run from Sifnos, and the most cinematic.

What you'll see
The Kleftiko sea caves and limestone stacks, the mineral-coloured west coast, and hidden swimming spots only reachable by boat.
Who it suits
Confident swimmers and anyone after the big day out. The crossing is longer, so less ideal for very young children.
