Pollonia is a small coastal village on Milos island in the Aegean Sea. While Milos is known for its volcanic coast and beaches, Pollonia itself is more of a laid-back gateway for visitors exploring the island than a major diving hub. Nearby dive centers on Milos offer daily boat and shore dives to local sites with clear water, rocky seabed, and typical Mediterranean marine life. Water conditions are usually temperate with visibility varying by season; expect reef-associated fish and occasional encrusting sponges along rocky shores. For divers, Pollonia provides access to Milos’ quieter dive scene and nearby caverns and walls around the island via day trips from wider Milos-based operations.
