Kimolos, in the southwestern Cyclades, is 87 nautical miles from Piraeus and lies just off Milos. Access is by boat from Piraeus or by plane to Milos, then transfer by ferry or fishing boat.
Kimolos is a volcanic island and covers an area of 37 square kilometers and is noted for the remarkable variety of its chalk-colored soil layers that inspired its name (kimolia is Greek for chalk).
The island is famous for its flora and fauna as it's caves are a primary habitat for the Mediterranean monk seal, while the island has sizeable populations of a rare, endemic viper species (known locally as "lebetina"), the blue lizard, the shag, the golden owl, a rare hawk species, and many migratory birds.
