Tips for the Folegandros–Milos Ferry
- Cancellation policies vary by operator – most offer a full refund if cancelled more than 24 hours before departure, but read the small print before you book.
- Carry a smaller day bag separately from your main luggage: this holds your passport, wallet, phone, charger, sunscreen, and anything else you need during the crossing.
- The eastern coast of islands (lee side) provides shelter from the meltemi; ports on the eastern shore of Mykonos, Naxos, and Paros are usually calmer.
- Once you arrive in Milos, the volcanic island’s extraordinary coastline reveals sea caves, coloured rock formations, and beaches of every kind, from the famous white pumice shores of Sarakiniko to the fishing village of Klima with its boathouses built into the rock. Milos is also the island where the Venus de Milo was discovered in 1820.
