Hiring a car

Do you need to rent a car on Sikinos?

Probably not. Sikinos has just two settlements, the port at Alopronia and Chora 3.5km uphill, linked by an hourly bus. Only two small rental outfits operate on the island, with stock limited in August, so most visitors get by on foot and the bus. If you want the freedom, check Discover Cars.

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 Milos to Sikinos ferry

  • Arrive at Adamas port at least 30 to 60 minutes before your ferry's scheduled departure, allowing time for check-in and boarding, since the port area becomes busy and congested during the peak summer months.
  • Milos's main bus stop is only a few metres from the port at Adamas, with services roughly timed to ferry arrivals and departures; buy your ticket on board, and check the last departure if you have a late ferry.
  • Adamas port itself has free Wi-Fi, public restrooms, an information booth and the port authority office, plus separate car and motorbike parking areas nearby at Adamas Square if you are arriving by road.
  • Some routes in the Dodecanese chain only operate in full summer mode from June; May sailings may be less frequent than the website implies.
  • In Sikinos, the double hilltop settlement of Chora – comprising the fortress village of Kastro and the adjacent Chorio – offers a wonderfully authentic Cycladic experience, with a Folklore Museum and traditional tavernas serving local dishes with capers. The port of Alopronia below is a sandy bay with a handful of traditional waterfront tavernas and a calm, unhurried atmosphere.
