Adamas Port

The main ferry port of Milos (MLO) is located in Adamas.
As soon as your ship starts to approach Milos, you will instantly notice the picturesque character of Adamas, which gets very lively during the summer, not only because of the port but also for the local tourist facilities.

All ferries from Athens reach Adamas. From there, you can also easily reach other Cycladic islands, which makes Milos the perfect starting point for island hopping.

The companies conducting routes to Milos are Blue Star Ferries, Seajets, Minoan Lines, Zante Ferries and Aegeon Pelagos. Seajets owns the high-speed vessels that operate routes to Milos, while the rest of the companies own the conventional ones. Ferry crossings to several places are available every day throughout summer, yet are limited during winter.

Car rentals: A car rental is the most convenient way to move around the island during your vacation. Car rentals can easily be arranged and pickups are available directly at the port.
