After we pick you up we will embark on our exploration of Mykonos by heading North towards what is perhaps the most iconic landmark in the whole island, the Armenistis Lighthouse. Built in 1891 after an English steamer sank in the waters near the area four years earlier, Armenistis has since become entangled with the history and subsequent rise in popularity of the island. Our next stops will inaugurate our beach hopping adventure as we make our way to Ftelia a beloved beach on the North side of the island. Ftelia is a sandy beach located in a bay which gives grounds for excellent weather and remains one of the lesser-visited beaches on Mykonos. Nearby lies a Neolithic settlement of the same name that is said to have been the burial site of Ajax the Locrian, a Homeric hero.
Driving back towards the center of the island we will take a short break and prepare ourselves for a truly traditional Mykonian experience! The settlement of Ano Mera in the heart of the island is as close as one gets to understand how locals live. Quaint shops, picturesque Cycladic alleys and of course the famous Monastery of Panagia Tourliani paint a wonderful picture that helps you escape the hustle and bustle of Chora. A visit to the monastery is in order before we hit the road again to experience a more contemporary aspect of Mykonos.
By now we have reached the South end of the island with two more beaches on our schedule; Agia Anna and Kalafatis. Both sandy and quite popular, they offer two distinct ways of enjoying the beach in Mykonos as Agia Anna is more of a lounger's spot, while Kalafatis is known for water sports and has been a pole of attraction for aficionados of that sort for decades. Due to Kalafatis' location the spot is ideal for windsurfing in particular.
Now for a hefty dose of glamour as we find ourselves at Super Paradise beach, undoubtedly the most famous and party-friendly spot on Mykonos. Don't act surprised if you chance upon a celebrity or two! We will stop at one of the most famous Beach Bars on the island for a refreshing break. The sun is starting to set and we will be making our way all across the island to the west end and the beach of Agios Ioannis, which offers a spectacular view of the setting sun which fills the Mykonian sky with an impressive hue of colors. After a fulfilling afternoon we will board our luxury vehicle and head back to your hotel. We know it's an impossible task, but on the ride back try to decide which is your favorite of all the Mykonian beaches!
