  2. Further up next to this wonderful area on the hill, you will see the Windmills of Mykonos facing the North. The strong wind Meltemi has helped the locals of the island to mill wheat . On many Cycladic islands, windmills are very common and they are made for the same purpose.

    30 min

  7. This is a long sandy beach, which, although popular with locals and tourists, still offers plenty of space for yourself. It’s usually split in half, umbrellas and sunbeds on one side, just sand on the other. It offers crystal-clear water and a more reasonably-priced restaurant, when compared to the rest of Mykonos.

    30 min

  8. Arriving at the village of Ano Mera, you will visit the 16th-century cathedral monastery of Panagia Tourliani. It is named after the dome (tourlos) of the church and the blessed Icon of the Virgin Mary.

    15 minAdmission included

  9. The lovely church of Panagia (Virgin Mary) Paraportiani is among the most photographed churches not only in Mykonos but in the whole world. It is located at the entrance of the Kastro neighborhood, right by the sea. Its name (Paraportiani) actually means standing next to the entrance door, meaning that the church was next to the Castle door.

    5 min

  10. Agios Ioannis settlement is named after the small church of Saint John that is built on the hill overlooking the beach. It is one of the most privileged places of Mykonos Island because of the stunning view to the sacred island of Delos and some of the best hotels in Mykonos. The order of sites visited may vary

  • 5Mykonos Small Group Tour

    It was our first trip to Greece and Maria and George were wonderful. The knowledge and history Maria shared was great and she was very engaging with our group. We would never have gotten to see so much on our short 3 day visit to Mykonos. Thank you for the sights and the experience!

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).
