Mykonos: Where Glamour Meets Greek Tradition
Mykonos has transformed from a quiet Cycladic island into one of the Mediterranean's most glamorous destinations. But beneath the celebrity veneer, the whitewashed charm and golden beaches remain.
Mykonos Town (Chora)
The island's heart is a labyrinth of white cubic houses, bougainvillea-draped alleys, and the famous row of windmills. Getting lost is half the fun.
Little Venice
Colorful buildings perched over the water, perfect for sunset cocktails.
The Windmills
Mykonos' most iconic sight—best photographed at sunset.
Panagia Paraportiani
A striking asymmetrical church complex, one of Greece's most photographed buildings.
Beach Scene
Psarou
Celebrity hangout with luxury beach clubs and crystal-clear water.
Super Paradise
The famous party beach with day-to-night festivities.
Elia
The island's longest beach—more relaxed, gay-friendly.
Agios Sostis
One of the few uncommercialized beaches, no facilities.
The Nightlife
Mykonos rivals Ibiza for after-dark action:
- Scorpios: Bohemian beach club for sunset
- Cavo Paradiso: Legendary clifftop club with international DJs
- Jackie O': LGBTQ+ institution
Day Trip to Delos
The sacred island birthplace of Apollo is one of Greece's most important archaeological sites—just a 30-minute boat ride.
