Monastery Of Panagia Tourliani

The Monastery Panagia Tourliani, just a short drive from Mykonos Town’s heart, is one of the most popular things to do in Mykonos. There is fierce competition for the best monasteries, churches and chapels on this tiny island. Panagia Tourliani, however, is not to be missed.

The monastery, which is almost five centuries old is a treat for the eyes. It is a stunning sight to see the clean stone facade with three bells and a bell tower. The marble fountain is also impressive and has intricate decorations.

The interior has been meticulously restored to its former splendor. The late 18th-century iconography and hand-painted altar screen will be on display for visitors.

The Kato Mili Windmills

The Kato Mili Windmills, backed by the pink skies at golden hour, are one of Mykonos’ most impressive sights. The island’s former wheat industry can be seen from Little Venice. A row of windmills with white and brown stripes runs along the coast.

These windmills were popular back in the day when there were 20. They are now one of Mykonos’ most visited attractions. Each windmill is a perfectly shaped cylinder rising from the ground, with brown thatched roofs. These windmills are simple, yet elegant. They are a great example of 18th-century Greek architecture.

These are free to see and make amazing photos. For the best sunsets on Mykonos, make sure you return at dusk.

Agrari Beach

Paradise Beach is a stark contrast to Agrari Beach. Popularity of Mykonos means that there are always beach parties and large crowds, which can make it difficult to leave in summer. Agrari Beach is where you can experience Mykonos’ pristine beaches, crystal clear water and friendly people.

This beach is located on the southern coast of the island. The beach is dotted with golden sand that runs along its length to Elia Beach. This creates a stunning 5-mile stretch of pure white sand and turquoise water.

You’ll walk down a narrow, steep path to reach the soft sand. There’s a concession stand, and you’ll find a few sunloungers that you can enjoy the warmth.

Little Venice, a neighborhood in Mykonos Town that will instantly steal your heart, is located. This is the area on the waterfront where white houses meet Aegean Sea. It will give you a picture that’s beyond your wildest dreams. Little Venice, like the windmills is where Mykonos’ natural beauty meets man-made opulence.

Merchants developed a lot of Little Venice’s features in the 18th Century. They’re now vacation homes, restaurants, as well as trendy bars, perfect for sunset cocktails. You should make reservations in advance. You can also walk down to the ocean and feel the water lapping between your feet as the sun touches the horizon.

Delos Island

A boat trip on to Delos Island, one of the most popular things to do in Mykonos is one of my favorite things to do. It takes approximately 30 minutes to reach the tiny Cycladic island from Mykonos Town.
