Begin your Mykonos adventure by wandering around the cobbled streets of the charming Mykonos Town. Admire the dazzling white-washed buildings with bright blue shutters, explore the small shops and boutiques, and visit the famous windmills and Little Venice, a picturesque location with beautiful houses built along the seafront.
Mykonos is famous for its incredible beaches, so today is all about experiencing them! Take a bus or drive to super Paradise Beach, a lively beach with fantastic water sports facilities and beach parties. After that, head to Platis Gialos beach for some relaxation featuring crystal clear waters and small sandy coves. Wind up the day by a visit to Psarou Beach, another chic beach with crystal-clear water and pristine sand.
Take a ferry ride and visit the nearby sacred island of Delos, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Explore the ancient city of Delos and visit the Temple of Apollo, the theatre, and the famous Lion Terrace with remarkable views of the Aegean Sea. You can also visit the museum on the island that displays the ruins from the excavations conducted on Delos.
Tour the iconic symbols of Mykonos, the stunning windmills, situated on the hill to the southwest of Mykonos town, and admire the beautiful scenery surrounding the town. Head to Little Venice after that, and enjoy a romantic sunset by the sea while sipping a refreshing cocktail.
If you are an adventurer, Ftelia beach does not disappoint you. This beach is famous for windsurfing and kitesurfing, and it's a great place to hone your skills. But if it's too much of a thrill for you, not to worry, rent a jet ski, go paddleboarding, or simply enjoy reading a book on the sand.
You can't leave Mykonos without trying the local delicacies! Start the day with a tasty breakfast of kopanisti cheese or freshly baked Bougatsa pastry. For lunch, indulge in Greek delicacies like Souvlaki or Moussaka dish at a traditional Greek tavern. In the evening, visit Caprice Bar, the most sophisticated bar of Mykonos, and try their signature cocktails.
For more adventure, rent a quad bike and explore Mykonos on four wheels. If you have extra time, add a visit to the quiet and peaceful Panormos beach. But, if you are on a shorter timeframe, it's better to skip some beach visits and try multiple local cafés or take a cooking class for Mykonos's iconic foods.
