Apollonia ( Greek Απολλώνια ( n. Pl. ), Locally Pollonia Πολλώνια) is a Greek fishing village in the northeast of the Cycladic island of Mílos .
In the past, the inhabitants lived almost exclusively from fishing. Today the rental of apartments, especially to Athenians, is one of the town's main sources of income. In addition to tourism , the inhabitants live mainly from mining , which allows them not to rely entirely on tourism. Many of the residents also cultivate their own fields, on which, depending on the season, all kinds of crops are grown, from peppers to zucchini to wine.
From Apollonia there is a ferry connection to the neighboring island of Kimolos several times a day .
