All about Mikonos

Planning a Mykonos vacation? We’re here to help!

From a distance, the 16th-century windmills overlooking Mykonos Town give the impression of a quaint old place with a slower pace of life, away from the fast-forward speed of today’s global world. And you can find that gentler rhythm on Mykonos, one of the Cyclades group of Greek islands – but that’s not what most people come to this sun-soaked spot in the Mediterranean for. Mainly, they come to the party. In July and August, the cafes, bars, and boutiques of the Hora (main town) of the island are teeming with sun-seeking, fun-seeking crowds, and Mykonos has adapted to serve them – pumping clubs play host to big-name DJs and swanky hotels cater to an A-list crowd. So if you visit in high summer then come prepared – pack your sun lotion, your most fashion-forward outfits, and your dancing shoes. Outside of peak season island life resumes at a more gentle pace.

Hit the town

There is one building which, while still very much in the center of town, offers a more peaceful take on bustling Hora. Mykonos is home to a huge number of those simple whitewashed churches that seem to soothe the soul, but the most beloved of them all is Panagia Paraportiani, a Byzantine jewel with spectacular views of the deep blue waters of the Med. Visit at the end of the day to watch as the sun sinks below the sea, gilding the old stone walls as it goes.

A beach for everyone

If you’re looking for a stretch of sand fit for all the family, then head to Kalafatis Beach. This shingle and sand beach has natural shade from a line of trees that run right along the back, so there’s plenty of space to lay out a picnic blanket for the little ones. Offshore breezes make it a well-known windsurfing spot too, and there’s a tavern for drinks and snacks if you weren’t quite organized enough to pack up the cooler.

Grand ruins

So you’re in Greece, the birthplace of one of the world’s greatest ancient civilizations. There must be some pretty impressive old buildings close by, right? Right. From the jetty in Mykonos Town, it’s a short boat ride to Delos, one of the most important archaeological sites in the country. The mythical birthplace of twins Apollo and Artemis, this Unesco World Heritage Site was once the religious and political center of the Cyclades, and today you can wander through the ancient ruins of once-monumental structures like the Sanctuary of Apollo. Other highlights include colorful floor mosaics, villas with grand courtyards, the famous Naxian lions on their terrace, various still-standing temples, and a sweeping view over the whole lot from Mount Kynthos. Make sure to kit up for your visit and wear a hat, sunscreen, and walking shoes.
