Highlights
-
Mykonos Town - (Upon Request)
The old city of Mykonos(Chora) will impress you with its absolute beauty and style.The Town of Mykonos, called Chora by the locals, is a traditional Cycladic village built around a bay.Cars are not allowed in the heart of the settlement for most of the day, which makes the walk among the labyrinth streets particularly pleasing, especially during the early morning. - Agios Ioannis Diakoftis - The coastal settlement of Agios Ioannis is located on the southwest side of the island at a distance of 5 km from Mykonos Town. Scenes from the movie Shirley Valentine were filmed in this area.
- Mykonos Secret Spot - The hidden attraction you will explore with us is a spot known only to permanent residents of Mykonos. You will surely take your best photos there. The view will fascinate you.
- Agios Sostis Beach - Agios Sostis in Mykonos is among the quietest beaches on the island due to its location, a bit far from the noisy southern beaches of Mykonos. It is an unspoiled area without any amenities, a characteristic that makes visitors feel totally free. On your way to the beach, you will see the church of Agios Sostis with its incomparable beauty.
- Armenistis Lighthouse - The lighthouse or Pharos Armenistis stands like a sentinel over the area since 1891.Armenistis Lighthouse (Faros Armenistis)stands in its silence, as a tribute to the rich maritime history of Mykonos island while remaining fully functional today.Situated on the north-western part of the island, at Fanari area, around 6.5 kilometers from Chora (Mykonos town) on the north coast road of the island, the lighthouse overlooks the stretch of sparkling blue water between Mykonos and the neighboring island of Tinos.
-
Ano Mera - Ano Mera in Mykonos is the second bigger village after Chora (main town) and is one of the oldest villages of the island. It is a quiet village where locals continue their everyday life without being interrupted by a crowd of tourists as it happens in the capital.Near Ano Mera lies the monastery of Panagia Tourliani whose main church houses a superb collection of icons made by a Cretan painter as well as holy vessels and vestments. The beautiful bell tower and marble fountain lie in the courtyard and are worth seeing.
Ano Mera also hosts some taverns along its main square, where you can taste traditional dishes at a normal cost. Cafes and pastry shops also lie around the square. -
Divounia Beach - Divounia, which some locals call “Venus’s Breasts” - they look like breasts. It’s an area that it used to be. a small fishing settlement, the closest thing Mykonos has to a fishing village!
In the mornings, regardless of the time of the year, one can achieve there many authentic fishing images, which are rarely seen in places like Mykonos and which may not even be imagined to exist in Mykonos. - Glyfadi Beach - Discover a stunning coastal haven, where panoramic sea views meet captivating landscapes. Perfect for photographers, this area offers idyllic spots to capture breathtaking views framed by serene waters and picturesque scenery. A true visual paradise.
- Fokos Beach - Featuring a wild landscape on a rocky bay in the northern part of the island, this is one of Mykonos’ “hidden beaches,” free of crowds. It’s faced by a taverna, but is usually nearly deserted, with only a few sunbathers. It is, however, a popular spot for horseback riding, so don’t be surprised if you see horses coming down the road towards the beach.
