Mykonos Travel Guide
Beauty can be found in many places on Mykonos. Gorgeous beaches are an obvious starting point. Which will lead you naturally to striking views and jaw dropping sunsets. It’s here we need to take time to appreciate the arresting architecture of Little Venice. Perhaps ponder the charm of a cliff-perched taverna or the uber-luxe, and super chic interior design of the beach clubs. Don’t even get us started on the many, many beautiful people that flock in by yacht every summer. Even the glimmering hulls of those multi-million dollar vessels add a certain something to the shimmering waters. Too much? Yes it can be.
If your eyeballs need a dose of gritty, unabashed realism, turn inland and explore. A quick mooch around Delos delivers some archaeological ruins to balance things out and remember how all this began. Mykonos is a beautiful isle drenched with sunshine, sumptuous produce. How did it become Greece’s party central? In the 60s Jackie Onassis brought a sophisticated group of guys and gals to the isle and the rest is history. Do follow in their footsteps, Mykonos is best enjoyed with added frills. Who among us can resist a perfectly placed cabana with butler service?

Weather
For the summer sun Mykonos holidays are known for, you’re looking at June to September. Peak months does mean peak visitors. But, everything’s open the nightlife can only be described as buzzing and the water’s warm. April to May are your months for sampling the best of Mykonos minus the crowds. October to March isn’t exactly a washout – but expect grey skies, at best.
