While the island of Mykonos spans just 33 square miles, this is an island that certainly packs a lot of punch per square mile. Mykonos seamlessly combines sandy panoramic beaches, a charming main town (with much-photographed windmills), chic hotels, sophisticated restaurants and an exciting night life that goes well into the wee hours of the evening.
The heart of the island is the bustling main town of Mykonos, often called Chora or Mykonos Town, where winding pebble stone streets lead into pretty squares of Cycladic whitewashed houses, dotted with bougainvillea and pots of geraniums. It’s a joy to explore and get lost in Chora amidst the many tempting boutiques, art galleries, scrumptious restaurants, bars and small churches.
