Kea to Milos Route Map
Kea to Milos on the Hellenic Seaways ferry Artemis is a marathon, roughly fifteen and a half hours as the ship works its way through the western and southern Cyclades with calls en route. There is nothing fast on this pairing, and the schedule is built around the wider chain rather than this particular pair of islands. Treat it as passage rather than transport.
Milos is the volcanic island in the south-west Cyclades where the Venus de Milo was found, and its landscapes are the reason most people go: Sarakiniko's white moonscape, the coloured cliffs at Firiplaka and Tsigrado, and the fishing village of Klima with its painted syrmata boathouses. Ferries arrive at Adamas, a working harbour town on a large natural bay, with buses and hire cars available at the dock. The island's mining history, sulphur and bentonite, is still visible around the coast.
This link sails only a couple of times a fortnight. Current dates, operator and fares are in the table below, starting around €12.50. In practice most people reach Milos from Piraeus, either on the conventional ferries or the fast craft, and that line also carries onward links to Kimolos, Sifnos and Folegandros.

Hiring a car
Do you need a car in Milos?
Yes, a car is genuinely useful on Milos. The ferry docks at Adamas, the island's main town and bus hub, so pickup is easy and buses cover Plaka and Pollonia, but the schedule is thin and most of the striking beaches, Sarakiniko, Firiplaka, Tsigrado, sit well outside it. Some access roads are unpaved, where standard insurance is void, so compare 4x4 options at Discover Cars.

Tips for the Kea to Milos ferry
- The sea temperature in the Aegean ranges from around 15°C in winter to 27–28°C in late summer; falling overboard in winter is a serious emergency.
- Medicines, including seasickness tablets and any prescription drugs, should always be in your day bag, not buried in hold luggage.
- Summer heat makes sun-exposed upper decks very intense between 11:00 and 16:00; bring sunscreen with a high SPF and a hat even for short crossings.
- 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.
