Mykonos

This scenic neighbourhood is a delight both day and night. Stroll along the waterfront and get a feel for the town while taking in the distinct local architecture. Sit down for a seafood lunch, have dinner with a view (over the blue waters and iconic hilltop windmills), or explore the bar scene after sundown.

If beach parties are what you're after, Mykonos will not disappoint. Check out the famous Paradise Beach and/or Super Paradise Beach for some of the hottest waterfront bars and clubs that never sleep (dancing is often in full swing in broad daylight). For a more relaxed, quieter experience, head to Elia, Platis Gialos, Ornos, Panormos, Paranga, or Agios Sostis Beaches–the latter is a true hidden gem tucked away far from the frenzied crowd in the island's north.

The island's iconic landmark is its collection of whitewashed round windmills (or Kato Milli), which make for some incredible postcard-ready photographs.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the island of Delos is an important sacred site for the ancient Greeks, and therefore, a must-visit for history and archaeology enthusiasts. It holds some curios remains of ancient civilisations: a former amphitheatre, historic houses with mosaics, temples, and the famous Terrace of the Lions. Don't skip the museum–it contains some artefacts dating as far back as the 25th century BC.

With its golden sand and aquamarine waters, Agia Anna Beach is a unique spot to soak up the sun, swim, or snorkel. From this exotic beach, you can admire the modest church of St. Anna and the small chapel of St. Nicholaos.

Lena's House Folk Museum is an authentic middle-class residence that showcases the Mykonian lifestyle in the 19th century through furnishings and objects. The museum takes its name from its last owner, Lena Skrivanou.

Learn more about the Greek 'liquid gold' by joining a fun, interactive, and educational workshop on the art of tasting and appreciating the Greek Extra Virgin Olive Oil. By the end of it, you will have sampled a wide selection and learned about the flavour complexities that differentiate "regular" oil from the more exclusive, higher-quality varieties.

Stroll through Matoyánni Street and venture out onto one of its many narrow side lanes to explore just how much beauty is hidden in Mykonos Town's labyrinth of brilliant white-coloured houses. The street is lined with designer boutiques, souvenir shops, and enticing restaurants in tiny squares that seem to spring out at wanderers at every turn.
