About Mykonos

Mykonos is the glamorous, whitewashed party island of the Cyclades — a maze of dazzling lanes, windmills, and bougainvillea that empties onto chic beach clubs and a famously lively nightlife. The old town (Chora) is a joy to get lost in, with the seaside 'Little Venice' quarter and the iconic hilltop windmills at its edge. By day it's beaches and boutiques; the vibe is upscale and sun-soaked.

💡
Insider Tip

Mykonos town is a deliberate maze (built to confuse pirates) — embrace getting lost rather than fighting it, and aim for Little Venice and the windmills. If you want a beach, decide first between party (Paradise) and peace (Ornos).
