Good

Small fishing village on the north-east corner — the foodie base and the Kimolos ferry point.

A horseshoe bay with maybe 20 buildings around it, 15 minutes from Adamas. Has become the gourmet capital of Milos — Enalion, Armenaki and Gialos all sit on the waterfront. Quieter and prettier than Adamas, ferry to Kimolos leaves from the small pier 4-6x daily in summer.
