Summer In Mykonos 2010







Mykonos Island is one of the most famous islands in the Mediterranean. It has two major reputations: the fame for its sophisticated night life and the reputation of being one of Europe’s gay capitals.











The shore leads to a world known area called “Little Venice” because of its high Venetian houses with their multicoloured porches and wooden balconies, build over the water with the waves breaking under them. It is one of the most picturesque corners of the island. It is located in front of the small sandy beach “Alefkandra”.

In that area, you will find many trendy café and bars. On the opposite side of the bay, you will see the famous windmills from where you can have a nice view over the Little Venice.









Mykonos is a traditional Cycladic village, with white cubic houses with blue wooden doors and windows, brightly coloured balconies and fuchsia bougainvilleas growing on the white walls. Walking in the small labyrinth streets, closed to motor traffic during the afternoon and the evening, you will find many beautiful houses, churches, tavernas, chic boutiques and shops selling souvenirs .
















The beaches of Mykonos Greece are famous for their golden sand and the crystalline waters as well as for their tourist and sport facilities and for the great fun they offer. Most beaches of the island can be found in the southern coast, which get extremely overcrowded during peak season (Paradise, Super Paradise, Platis Yialos, Psarou and Ornos). The beaches of Paradise and Super Paradise are famous as the best party beaches in Greece. Beaches on the northern coast of Mykonos are less organized and more peaceful, ideal to enjoy some calm moments.
