Armenistis Lighthouse

Take in the Armenistis Lighthouse, one of Mykonos’ most recognizable landmarks. Set high on a scenic vantage point, it provides sweeping views over the Aegean Sea, including nearby islands such as Delos, Rhenia, and Tinos.
45m

Discover Ano Mera, a picturesque Cycladic village situated only a short distance inland from Mykonos Town. It offers a look into a quieter past, preserving the island’s traditional character from before the rise of mass tourism.

Visit the Panagia Tourliani Monastery, one of Mykonos’ key religious sites. Take in its elegant marble bell tower and richly decorated Baroque iconostasis during a self-guided visit inside, giving you time to appreciate its history and serene ambiance.
Mykonos Elia Beach
15m

Enjoy a brief photo stop at Elia Beach, one of Mykonos' longest and most beautiful beaches.
Mykonos Town

Wander through the captivating maze of narrow streets in Mykonos Town, lined with its signature whitewashed, cube-shaped houses. Soak up the charm of what was once a small Cycladic fishing village, where every corner reveals a mix of history and scenic beauty.

The Windmills (Kato Milli)

Little Venice
30m

Discover Little Venice, one of Mykonos’ most iconic and picturesque areas. Here, the buildings are built directly along the water, with balconies extending out over the sea. During the 16th and 17th centuries, when piracy was widespread, this district was likely used for the quick loading and unloading of goods, contributing to its fascinating and layered history.
