WHERE TO SWIM
Mykonos, apart from the party life, is known for the many amazing beaches, so it is really hard to pick. These are our personal favorites.
Agios Sostis beach
We are actually referring to the tiny gulf right next to Agios Sostis beach. The sand is golden, the waters crystal clear and the energy just right. There are no sun beds or umbrellas, so make sure to bring your own. And don't forget to lunch at Kikis tavern, just drop by to give your name at the waiting list. There are no reservation and the wait is a bit long but it's worth it.
Agios Sostis Beach
Ftelia beach
Popular to wind-surfers, Ftelia bay is quiet, relaxing, dog friendly and with lots of space to pick and set up your own spot to chill. At the end of the bay, in a small gulf, you will find Alemagou beach/bar restaurant.Elia beach
The longest sandy beach of Mykonos, fully organized, offers anything you need from water sports to restaurants. Yet it is still quiet, with a nice crowd and clear blue waters.
WHAT TO PACK
Yes, you guessed right, swim and flip flops will be an everyday and all day outfit. Breezy cute dresses, skirts and crop tops are always a must. It might get a little windy at night so take a longsleeve top with you.
