What you'll see and do
Kimolos
We depart from the dock of Platis Gialos marina, heading southwest, and enter the strait of Kitriani-Sifnos. After approximately 9NM we reach the north side of Kimolos island and we enter the magnificent and ever so secluded bay of Soufi beach, this is the beach that Riris calls “Valium“. We are most of the times, all alone there and we can stay for a good half-hour to 45 minutes and enjoy swimming in the crystal clear turquoise waters.

Poliegos
We depart and head southeast towards the uninhabited island of Poliegos. After about 5 NM and 15 minutes, we reach Poliegos and we stop to the open roof cave of Fanara with the crystal-clear blue water and the beautiful colors on the volcanic walls, you will be in absolute awe with this amazing spot where you can also swim if you wish and also take incredible photos sitting on top of the rock that lays in the middle of the cave. We then head south, and we soon enter the bay of Faros (Lighthouse). There we can admire the much-photographed lighthouse of the island built in 1898 by the British and is still operational. We anchor and you can swim there and enjoy the turquoise waters as well as the small lake that is attracting wild goats. If you have any type of snacks or vegetables or fruits, you can even feed the goats down on the beach since they do expect a treat or two! We can stay there for about 45 minutes.

Poliegos
We then head to the southern end of the island, and we pass the famous Indian totem looking rock and we turn southwest, if there’s north winds and the sea is a bit wavy, when we make this turn, the sea becomes absolutely still and turquoise because we ‘re now in the south part of Poliegos so we’re not affected by the north winds anymore! We anchor at a magical secluded small bay that is ideal for snorkeling, with crystal clear waters. We stay there for at least another 45 minutes.

Poliegos
We then head towards the bay Kalogeroi. There are white and pink pebbles and beautiful rocks that surround the bay. We will soon enter the bay with the ruins of old mines on the island. We then head west. We will see the rocks in the shape of sailboats and enter the caves with the boat to see the wonderful waters. The Sifnos boat rentals team will then take you to Poliegos beach where will anchor for another 20 minutes, the waters there are as turquoise as they come, you will think that you are in a swimming pool, simply unbelievable clarity and color.

Poliegos
We keep heading west and after about 200 meters there is yet another incredible spot called Blue Bay with the same turquoise crystal-clear waters, maybe the best spot of the island, but you will be the judge of that. We will anchor there for another 20 minutes and will then head northwest towards Myrsini beach. Over at Myrsini beach you will see many super expensive yachts, because is definitely the place where the rich and famous like to drop anchor and enjoy the magic of Poliegos. Amazing waters and a beautiful white sandy beach where we’ll anchor for another 20 minutes.
40 minutes here
Kimolos
We then head northwest towards Kimolos island again, we can visit, -if you wish-, the port of Kimolos, also known as Psathi or Psatha. A stop there is recommended if we wish to enjoy a coffee or have wonderful lunch at the local seaside tavern called “To Kyma“. Afterwards we can explore and swim in all the incredible beaches on the east side of the island, such as Goupa Kara and Prassa which is considered the most beautiful beach of Kimolos. We then head northeast towards Sifnos, till we reach Platis Gialos and finish off a simply incredible day full of memories that will last a lifetime!

A day in paradise
I have rented a rib boat 8m, wet dreams, and the journey was amazing! First of all, the briefing was very very efficient, quick and clear, then the boat is super comfortable, super well equipped. We had an amazing day, something that I really recommend when you want to dream in that big blue see around Sifnos. You can even eat in Milos and come back. Thanks to A la mer team, we will come back in Sifnos so keep us the same boat !!!
Response from the operator: Thank you for this wonderful review. You can rent the Wet Dream anytime is available! :)

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
6 Hours Kimolos and Poliegos islands Private tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Milos.
How much does 6 Hours Kimolos and Poliegos islands Private tour cost?
+
Prices start at $1,770 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Milos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 6 Hours Kimolos and Poliegos islands Private tour take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Milos is not rushed.
Is 6 Hours Kimolos and Poliegos islands Private tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 18 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Milos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 6 Hours Kimolos and Poliegos islands Private tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 6 Hours Kimolos and Poliegos islands Private tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 6 Hours Kimolos and Poliegos islands Private tour?
+
Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Milos can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Milos and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 6 Hours Kimolos and Poliegos islands Private tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Milos within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Milos?
+
On Outty we rank every Milos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Milos Small-Group Full-Day Cruise with Snorkelling and Lunch, Best of Milos and Poliegos Catamaran snorkelling Cruise with BBQ, CATAMARAN Kleftiko Poliegos & Round of Milos Lunch with Openbar. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Milos?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Milos?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
