5 Fun and Extraordinary Things you Should Definitely Do if you go to Mykonos
By visiting Mykonos you are going to have a lot of fun – you already know that. But here are the 5 most extraordinary experiences you shouldn’t miss during your trip to the amazing Cycladic island.
Choose one of the beautiful Mykonos Luxury Villas for your accommodation.
You will definitely feel exhausted by the end of your first day on the island – but also very happy with your new experiences here.
What you need to rest and get ready for the next day’s exploration is a quiet and relaxing place to retreat for some hours.
A Mykonos villa for rent is exactly what you need.
It will offer you all the amenities, services and space you need to get a good rest and some relaxing hours with your friends.
Swim in the waters of Delos island (reach Delos by boat).
Delos has been very famous in the past. During ancient times, it has been a very important port for sailors travelling through the Mediterranean and Aegean.
Today, Delos has one of the most significant archaeological sites. Unlike other sites in Greece, where you can only see the floor layout of the ancient buildings, in Delos residences, temples, theatres, stadiums, gyms and other monumental constructions and buildings have been found in splendid condition.
They are beautifully preserved and can give us a complete picture of the architecture, interior layout, materials used, wall decoration, water supply, sewage system, etc.
But Delos has even more beauties for the visitor: the virgin, quiet beaches with the crystal clear waters. Small secluded coves can be reached only by boat so it is highly recommended to visit Delos by a rented private yacht.
The only sandy beach on the islet is Fournoi, where you will see some other guests swimming or sunbathing. Delos has no restaurants, bars or even houses, so you must take everything you will need onboard.
Dance until the morning watching the sun rises.
Time passes fast at Mykonos, especially at night. You will find out you don’t even need to try to stay awake until the morning to watch the sunrise.
If you visit one of the party beaches or the crowded bars and clubs in Mykonos Town, it is more likely that you will stay there until the sun comes up.
A great experience is dancing on the beach at Paradise, Super Paradise, Psarou or Paranga popular beaches.
Here the parties are going on all night and the DJs play the latest dancing hits. Guests dance everywhere – on the tables, on the floor or on the sand.
When you notice the daylight, take a break and relax, watching the sunrise – which is almost as spectacular as the sunset in the Cyclades.
You will be surrounded by hundreds of tired guests who also have just realized it is time to go to bed.
Do windsurf or go for snorkelling.
Water sports are easy to be found in Mykonos, as most organized beaches have water sports facilities. In fact, some of the island’s beaches are ideal for windsurfing and attract many enthusiasts from all over the world.
These beaches mainly are Kalafatis, Korfos, Ftelia and Platys Gialos.
If you prefer snorkelling, you will find good dive centres at Lia, Kalafatis and Paradise beaches, where you can rent all the required equipment and help from the experienced staff.
Mykonos has a rich water life and you can go snorkelling almost everywhere around the island.
If you are a beginner you should stay close to the beach and avoid the northern shoreline with the strong winds.
