Itinerary

  1. Faros Armenistis the iconic 19th-century Lighthouse standing guard over the northern straits. This historic sentinel offers the island's best 360-degree views, where the deep blue of the Aegean meets the rugged cliffs of Mykonos. Perfect for capturing the true, wild essence of the Cyclades away from the crowds.

    20 min

  2. Fokos Beach is one of Mykonos’ last truly untouched spots — a wide, wild stretch of sand framed by rugged hills and clear, refreshing water. Quiet, remote, and free from crowds, it’s the place locals go when they want pure island calm. Just behind the shore, the beloved Fokos Taverna serves fresh, authentic Greek seafood, giving visitors a taste of real Mykonos in the most peaceful setting.

    20 min

  3. Guests will capture panoramic photos of the sweeping golden sands and deep blue waters of Kalafatis Beach, famous for its colorful windsurfers. Just at the edge of the bay lies Divounia, a hidden, centuries-old traditional fisherman’s village. Here, guests can photograph the authentic, white-washed stone huts with bright blue doors—called "syrmata"—where fishermen still park their boats, offering a rare glimpse into old, untouched Mykonos.

    15 min

  4. Monastery of Tourliani the 16th-century spiritual heart of Mykonos. Marvel at the monastery's ornate marble carvings and historic bell tower. Admission is included. (not compulsory to enter).

About Mykonos

Whitewashed lanes, windmills and golden beaches make sun-bleached Mykonos a Cycladic favourite, famous for its glamour and lively nights.

Mykonos Town, or Chora, is a maze of narrow lanes, blue doors, tiny churches and bougainvillea, said to have been laid out to confuse pirates. Little Venice, where balconied houses hang over the sea, is the classic place for sunset, with a row of windmills on the hill above. The Paraportiani Church, a whitewashed cluster of chapels, is the island's most photographed building.

Top-ranked sights in Mykonos: Mykonos Town (Chora Mykonos), Little Venice, Mykonos Windmills (Kato Mili).
