Visiting Sifnos after Milos
It has to be said, that there are fewer islands easier to reach from Milos than Sifnos. It's probably to do with how the ferry routes work between other islands, but as a result there are up to 5 Milos Sifnos ferries per day during the summer months.
Is Sifnos worth visiting though?
It sure is! It's become something of a gastronomical attraction over the last few years (the food is amazing!), and has a perfect balance of low-key nightlife, great beaches, and Cycladic beauty.
If you're looking for a Greek island to get away from the crowds after leaving Milos, Sifnos might make an excellent choice. It's not as quiet as somewhere like Sikinos, but worlds apart from the likes of Mykonos and Santorini.
How to get from Milos to Sifnos
Even though Milos has an airport, flying from between Milos and Sifnos is not possible. The Milos airport only connects with Athens, and Sifnos doesn't have an airport at all.
This means that you'll be island hopping by ferry between Milos and Sifnos, but it's a really short journey so it won't eat into much of your vacation time.
Note that ferries to Sifnos from Milos usually leave from the main Adamas port rather than Pollonia, but double check after you've booked your tickets just in case!
