You must do this boat ride for a magical experience! - We have had tours that were truly great, absolutely amazing, superbly wonderful. This boat tour was better than all of those; it was magical. It was an all day cruise but it felt like it flew by and we did not want it to end. The scenery was unique and stunning. The boat was perfect. The food and drinks were plentiful and superb. The swimming was surreal with crystal clear water and beaches at the entrance of caves. And then there is the captain and mate, Yiannis and Konstadina (Dina), who were the final piece of the puzzle to make the experience magical! We felt like they were family and all they wanted was to make the experience perfect. They did! It. We travel a great deal and do many excursions, and I would say this was the best. You must do this adventure and try try try to get the team of Yiannis and Konstadina. Thank you both. We will always remember you.

Great sailing around Milos - Thank you George and Flora for giving us a once in a lifetime experience! We sailed in the most beautiful waters. We jumped off the boat, we snorkeled, and enjoyed the best of days! Thank you for every bit of help and kindness. We also loved the lunch and snacks of traditional Greek food. George and Flora also helped us with our Greek! We will always remember this special day! Thank you!

Milo’s at its best! - The skippers were very kind, helpful, funny and knowledgeable. The places they took u were amazing and stunning. By far the best excursion ever! Do not miss this one; you will not be disappointed. Take a camera, bathing suit, towel and sunscreen. They have the rest covered. Drinks and food aplenty and good.

Incredible Experience not to be missed in Milos! - We traveled to Greece for our first time in September and Milos was our first island to explore. Based on great user reviews, we pre-booked the full day West Milos Kleftiko Sailing Boat Cruise.
Prior to flying to Greece, I was a bit alarmed that high North winds might affect the tour on the day of our sail. I emailed Polco Sailing prior to our trip. I asked if we could be rescheduled for the day before if our sail were to be cancelled. They promptly responded that they were likely going to cancel the sails on our scheduled day as well as the next. And then they automatically rescheduled us to sail the day before. I was so relieved and impressed!
The North winds were just beginning on the day of our sail. Polco Sailing advised us the day before that their boats were moved to the south/west side and that the route would be altered from their normal route. They offered anyone who needed transfers from Adamantas port to the south/west side if they did not have cars.
Our group consisted of only 10 people, with our captain and first mate, George and Flora. We first motored to Gerakas for a stop to snorkel. George and Flora provided anyone wo wanted masks, snorkels and noodles. The water was clear and refreshing. From there, we sailed to the Kleftiko Caves. We had ample time to snorkel and explore. George took underwater photos of us which Polco provides free of charge. Flora prepared wonderful Greek appetizers followed later with a generous portion of Moussaka and Greek salad lunch! Flora and George were just the best hosts, insuring everyone always had a drink in hand and enjoying the best music. George has great taste in music!
Then George divided us into two separate groups to go explore the Kleftiko caves in the dingy. What an incredible experience! George is quite the experienced driver and could maneuver the dingy into the smallest crevices. It was so much fun and the highlight of my trip in Milos! Then George gave us an opportunity, if we wanted, which I will not divulge on this review. It was great fun! The caves are not to be missed! Great pirate’s hideaway for sure.
Afterwards, we motored to Tsigrado beach for another stop to snorkel. Then we had baklava for dessert and headed back to our starting point.
I have to thank Polco Sailing for rescheduling us due to the weather in such short notice. And George and Flora, we sincerely thank you two for giving us such an incredible day that will always be treasured lasting memories. You are just the best!!!

This one IS THE BEST!! - Had a fun day with George and Flora on our sailing cruise to the west coast of Milos! I’m not a good swimmer and they helped me get in the water safely and happily swam around on my two noodles 😊. They were so encouraging and supportive and I’m so happy to have swum in the Aegean Sea!!
The special dinghy tour in the caves was amazing- I now believe in dragons because I have heard one! The small group with ten passengers gave us the chance to get to know each other so we feel like we spent the day with our new friends.

Best boat day trip in Milos - I would rate this the best tour we did during our 2 weeks in Greece. Polco maintains a small number of participants on the excursion (10 total max). The food was incredible; we actually skipped dinner because we just weren’t hungry after getting back. George and Flora were so nice and shared information about each stop we made; they never rushed us to the next stop. They were the best skippers/guides and worked so well together. 10/10 highly recommend this as your excursion activity for Milos to see some places which are only reachable by boat.
