Fyriplaka beach — Attraction in Municipality of Milos

Can get a bit busy, but rightly so as it is a gorgeous beach with relatively easy access from the main road. From the main road, it is a narrow sandy track all the way down to the beach. Most people seem to want to drive as far down this as they can in the hope of finding a parking spot. I wouldn't recommend it when busy as it's quite narrow, and if you miss the last spot, you'll have to try to turn around and come back up. Saw two people damage their cars doing this. Better to park at the top and walk - it's 5 minutes!

The main beach is sandy with no shade, so take an umbrella. There are no facilties other than a hut where you can hire kayaks for 10€ per half hour. This is where you will find 95% of people. It gets more rugged after the big rock in the sea, but you may need to get your feet wet to get past. From there on, it is a pebble beach with the odd sandy patch but more rugged and even more beautiful. The colour of the stones under your feet is quite special, and the cliffs at the back of the beach are like something from another planet.

One of Milos’ most stunning beaches awaits.

At the entrance of the beach, there’s a beach bar. While I personally feel it slightly detracts from the natural beauty, I recognize its convenience for those without umbrellas or beach gear for extended stays.

Upon arrival, the last 200 meters is somewhat off-road, flanked by parked cars on both sides. While a 4x4 isn’t necessary, be cautious of sandy patches when parking. Also, note that the road is narrow, so it’s wise to wait for a clear spot to avoid potential jams with oncoming vehicles.

The waters are mesmerizing—crystal clear and shallow. The expansive sandy coastline boasts a prominent rock with a cave-like hole, perfect for wading through and capturing photos. The end of the coastline is worth exploring, with its majestic boulders, pristine waters, and possibly a quiet escape from the crowd—a perfect photo opportunity.

This beach is BEAUTIFUL. Water is a beautiful blue and it’s very clean.

I usually don’t write beach reviews, but I felt compelled to write one after reading such negative reviews on the price of the beach bar. Milos is an island. Everything is often more pricey In general.

I wonder if their opinion would change if they knew how hard these employees had to work to bring all the supplies to the bar!? Probably not because they sound like the type of people who complain about everything.

I watched it all and it was almost hard to not offer help. A little boat made several trips to drop off CRATES of water, drinks, wine soda etc. the employees worked so hard to transfer it into storage. And this was just the beverage delivery! I’m sure the food delivery is a whole other animal.

I write this as I order my son’s $10 chicken nuggets. Bring your own snacks if price is an issue. Even your own drinks. No one is...
