Things to do in Mykonos:
Little Venice
The best way to explore the island is to get out and let your instinct take you through the beautiful maze-like of alleyways of ‘Little Venice’, where you will see the iconic white and blue-coloured houses. Little Venice offers lots of cafés, bars, and high-end boutiques where you can find authentic goods, souvenirs, jewelry, and other artesanal keepsakes. You won’t find a single thing here that’s not photogenic.
Beaches & Parties
Mykonos is famous for its beautiful beaches and wild parties. The island offers loads of beaches, but not all of them are meant for relaxation and sunbathing. Many are famous party beaches, and you will experience crazy nights, days, and everything in between here.
- Psarou Beach is one of the most deluxe and calm beaches of Mykonos. It is a bit removed from the main town and a great place for relaxing.
- Super Paradise Beach, known as a party beach, offers scenic views and beach bars. The party starts here pretty early and is often wild, with many nude dancers.
- Paradise Beach is another party beach where the fun starts long before sunset. The famous Tropicana Beach Bar is where the party really gets wild and goes to another level.
- Paraga Beach has a really nice vibe and things stay calm here. It’s a place where you can enjoy swimming in shallow waters and take a leisurely break from beach party madness.
Windsurfing & Scuba Diving
