View of Alefkandra (Little Venice)

5.4
4.6/5
90 reviews
View of Alefkandra (Little Venice)is located on the waterfront of Mykonos Town on the island of Mykonos, Greece, and is one of the island's iconic sights. There is no wide coastal boulevard here, but rather a row of ancient mansions clinging to the sea. Colorful walls, white exteriors, wooden galleries, and seaside balconies together form a unique coastal view. Red, blue, and ochre window frames dot the pristine white walls, while wooden balconies hang over the sea, swaying gently in the sea breeze and exuding a leisurely and romantic atmosphere. Walking into the neighborhood, narrow, winding cobblestone alleys stretch between the white houses. Turning a corner, you can often encounter a brightly colored window, a quiet little courtyard, or a hidden corner with a view of the blue sea.Mykonos · 6.2 km from Elia
Paradise Beach
No. 20 of Best Things to Do in Greece

Paradise Beach

5.1
4.1/5
112 reviews
Paradise Beachis located on the southern coast of Mykonos, Greece, and is an iconic seaside attraction on the island. It features an open bay, stretches of fine golden sand, and clear azure waters, showcasing typical Aegean coastal scenery. The beach stretches along the coast, with soft sand glowing warmly in the sunlight, while the water transitions from a shallow cyan near the shore to a deep, clear blue, offering a refreshing and relaxing experience. Because the bay faces south, its topography is relatively sheltered from the strong winds that prevail in summer. Even when it is windy elsewhere on the island, the sea here can sometimes remain relatively calm, making it suitable for swimming, sunbathing, and seaside relaxation. Strolling along the beach, you can see several beach clubs distributed in different areas, with parasols, sun loungers, and seaside lounge areas dotting the golden sand. During the day, visitors can lie on the beach to enjoy the sun or step into the cool water to admire the vast horizon in the distance.Mykonos · 3.3 km from Elia
Windmills of Mykonos

Windmills of Mykonos

4.7/5
52 reviews
Windmills of Mykonos, also known as the Kato Mili windmills, are five Cycladic-style windmills built in the 16th century with thatched roofs. They are another landmark of Mykonos, and because they are located on a hillside in Mykonos, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the city from here. The windmills stir the sea breeze, offering a view of the seagulls over the Aegean Sea and the island's distinctive white houses, which is why Mykonos is known as the Island of Windmills. In Mykonos, where the wind is strong, the windmills were originally used for grinding wheat, but they are no longer in use and have become a beautiful scenic spot.Mykonos · 6.2 km from Elia

Holy Church of Panagia Paraportiani is located in the Kastro district and is a famous white church in Mykonos. It is a gem of Byzantine architecture, formed by the combination of four churches. The church has two levels. The upper chapel is currently closed, while the lower chapel has a small door, which is why it is also known as the "Church of the Small Door".Mykonos · 6.3 km from Elia
Sunset Sightseeing in Mykonos

Sunset Sightseeing in Mykonos

3.5
Mykonos, a beautiful island in the Aegean Sea, is famous for its gorgeous sunsets. When the setting sun slowly sinks into the Aegean Sea, the sea surface is dyed golden red, which contrasts sharply with the white windmills, blue roofs and white houses on the island, forming a series of intoxicating pictures. The best time to travel to Mykonos is from June to September, when you can enjoy the endless coastal scenery and magnificent sunset. In addition to the windmills, Mykonos's harbor, Little Venice and other places are also popular spots for watching the sunset. These places are not only beautiful, but also full of strong Greek style.Greece · Mykonos

I didn't expect there is such a place in the city center. The transportation here is also very easy. It is really beautiful here, completely different from the hustle and bustle downstairs. I really like the scenery here, which is very Greek in style.

If you're young, that beach is a must-visit on Mykonos. You can eat, drink, and have fun in a beautiful environment, carefree as a group of young people party, with the waves crashing around you to your rhythm. That's the scene I witnessed.

These windmills where used to grind grains in olden days before electricity. Probably 17th or 18th century. However not these 7 windmills are been preserved and serve as the icon of Mykonos.Spectacular view of the old port and little Venice... Lots of parking space though very crowded.. Amazing hotel south of the windmills.You can see the windmills from practically every hill in Mykonos.

The Church of Panagia Paraportiani in Mykonos is the most famous white church in Mykonos. It is a treasure of Byzantine churches and is composed of four churches in one. The church is divided into two floors. The upper chapel is now closed. The lower chapel has a small door, so it is also called the "Small Door Church". This most famous church in Mykonos is also a top-ranked attraction. Marshmallow Church, White Church, and Melted Ice Cream Church are all its names. Here we saw beautiful women taking blockbusters and handsome men posing. A group of people also took a photo with the handsome guy. The last picture is the lobby of the hotel we stayed in Mykonos, with a painting of the Church of Panagia Paraportiani hanging on the wall.

Delos is an island in the Aegean Sea, the heart of the Cyclades. This time it was because I booked a cruise trip, and this was one of the stops. I finally went for a swim in the sea. Although it was extremely salty, it was still quite refreshing. There are many cats on the island. If you don’t visit any musee, you don’t have to pay extra. The two of us didn't follow the tour guide and stumbled onto the most classic place.
