When you’re not hopping from one bar to the next, explore the wonders of Mykonos in many ways. Jump into a drysuit and swim the surrounding wrecks, get up close and personal with marine life or weave your way in and out of its mysterious caves. Mountain bike the island’s rugged interior and stumble across abandoned neighbourhoods or secluded sand spots.

Tick off must-visits including the Church of Paraportiani, this ancient landmark dates back to 1475 and was originally meant to be the site for four churches. Or, walk the romantic waterfront of Little Venice and its Venetian style buildings.

The Windmills of Chora

This one’s for the camera, it’s one of the most recognised and famous sites in Mykonos. For centuries the mills were designed to refine grains with the help of the island’s winds. Today, the ones that survived the growth of technology are now museums or private homes. Only seven have been preserved and during your visit we recommend walking the Hill of Chora for sweeping panoramas – one of the best places to catch the sunset.

Mykonos Town

You’ll want to get lost down these cobbles, the town is brimming with quirky antique shops, fashion savvy boutiques and high-end eateries. These maze-like streets were purposely built to confuse pirates back in the day. But don’t worry, it’s still easy to stumble across major draws including Chora Church, which has been recognised as a national cultural monument for its interesting architecture – definitely one for the bucket list.
