With a rugged landscape, historical windmills, Cycladic architecture, powder-soft beaches and crystal clear waters – Mykonos is a picture of pure bliss tucked amidst the islands of Tinos, Syros, Paros and Naxos. Renowned for its intense nightlife and beach bars, Mykonos is paradise for bar-hoppers and party lovers. The town also offers a treasure trove of natural beauty, rich history, cosmopolitan character and plenty of local colour... no wonder then that the streets are brimming with people all year round.
Get that holiday tan as you spend a lazy afternoon at the quaint beaches of Mykonos; or experience the adrenalin rush while you indulge in water sports or enjoy an evening with friends at one of the stylish beach pubs. Chora, the largest and the most popular town in Mykonos, is a delight for visitors. Little white houses with flowers, blue windows and doors, ancient churches, pigeon keepers, chimneys, hand-painted streets et al, make it a picture-postcard capital. The windmills, a trademark of the island, stand on a hill and can be seen from any point in the Chora village.
In Mykonos, do visit the Church of Paraportiani, a cluster of five churches built in a compact complex. One of the most photographed buildings, this majestic Byzantine church overlooks the sea. Enjoy a walk down the narrow labyrinth-like streets, taking in every detail of the impeccable architecture or visit the Enoplon Dynameon, one of the busiest streets of Mykonos that has the Archaeological museum. The little village, Ano Mera, is worth a visit too. Small, pretty and quiet, visit the monastery and the little church museum which was built in the 15th century. Hop on to a ferry for a day trip to the sacred island of Delos, considered to be the holiest island in ancient Greece.
For those who like to live it up at night, the streets of Mykonos are literally packed with bars and clubs, permissive to all tastes, preferences and moods. Spend an evening at the Scandinavian Bar, rated as one the best in the world, or sip on a drink sitting on the steps outside at Uno – one of the oldest bars in Chora. With options galore, you are sure to be spoilt for choice.
Mykonos has all the ingredients for a perfect holiday – a picturesque landscape, golden sand, crystal water, rich history and an exhilarating night life... but most of all, it holds the promise of an unforgettable experience...
