Mykonos

Though Mykonos is one of the smaller Cyclades islands, it packs quite a punch. From its fine sandy beaches and ocean-front tavernas to its eclectic nightlife, it is no surprise this island attracts an international clientele.

Despite its desirability, Mykonos still retains its character, charm, and bohemian allure. The stunning white architecture, blue-domed churches and stretches of beautiful sandy beaches are all accentuated by the wonderful Mediterranean light and deep blue Aegean Sea. The island boasts a beach for every taste, with less-developed and calmer beaches to the north, and livelier ones on the south shore.

Wander through the narrow winding streets of the Chora (Old Town), party on Super Paradise beach, or enjoy a sundowner in the spot where Shirley Valentine was filmed. For history lovers, the island of Delos, one of Greece’s most important archaeological sites, is just a short boat-ride away. Children and adults alike will fall in love with this island - and with direct flights from all over the world it is almost impossible not to return.
