Why travel by ferry from Santorini to Milos?

Whether you're travelling alone, as a couple or with the family, a Santorini to Milos ferry can be a convenient and enjoyable option for getting to Milos. Here are 3 reasons why we think a ferry from Santorini to Milos is an ideal way to travel.

No need to worry about travelling with your bike
Travelling with your bike on a train, plane or bus is often a nightmare because it is so cumbersome to carry. However, on a ferry, you don't have this problem: your bike is loaded directly into the ship's huge garage. You leave it there for the duration of the Santorini-Milos crossing in complete safety and without fear of it being damaged. You will get on your bike in Milos to get off the boat.
Resting in a cabin
Although it is not compulsory to make the crossing from Santorini to Milos by booking a cabin, you are depriving yourself of a comfort that the ferry is the only mode of transport to offer. Equipped with berths, private bathrooms and sometimes even portholes or balconies, the cabins are not unlike real hotel rooms. Even on a day crossing, enjoying the privacy of a cabin is still possible and much more comfortable than sitting in a lounge.
Take an unlimited amount of luggage
With other modes of transport, we are often limited to 1 piece of luggage, and each additional piece of luggage is charged. On the Santorini Milos ferry, you can take as much luggage as you like, within the capacity of your vehicle. If you are travelling as a pedestrian, the conditions may be more restrictive as you will need to carry your luggage with you until you arrive in Milos. However, many ships provide luggage storage for foot passengers. Check with Sea Jets, Zante Ferries, LANE Sea Line, ANEK Lines or Aegean Sea Lines.
