Transportation in Milos

# Getting Around Milos: Transportation Overview Milos is a Greek island where having your own wheels is essential for exploring its famous beaches and villages scattered across the landscape. **Car and scooter rentals are the primary transportation mode** for visitors, as the island's attractions are spread out and public transport is limited. Most travelers rent vehicles either at the airport or in Adamas, the main port town, for the duration of their stay. **From the airport**, which is located near the center of the island, you'll need to arrange transportation to your accommodation. Taxis are available but should be pre-booked during peak season, or you can arrange a rental car pickup directly at the airport - many visitors find this the most practical option since you'll want a vehicle anyway for beach hopping. **First-time visitor tip**: Milos doesn't have the extensive bus networks found on larger Greek islands. While there is limited local bus service connecting major villages to Adamas, schedules are infrequent and don't reach many of the island's stunning remote beaches like Tsigrado or Firiplaka. Budget for a rental vehicle as part of your Milos experience - it's not just convenient, it's practically necessary for making the most of your visit. *Note: For current vehicle rental rates and availability, use the booking widgets on this page to compare options from local providers.*
