After soaking up the sun on Mykonos' stunning beaches, it's time to explore Chora, the island’s vibrant capital. This charming town is a maze of cobbled streets, whitewashed churches, and iconic landmarks like the Panagia Paraportiani, the most photographed church in the Aegean, and the Mykonos Windmills, a must-visit for breathtaking sunset views.
Stroll through Little Venice, where colorful houses sit above the sea, and discover an array of souvenir shops, high-end boutiques, seaside cafes, and lively cocktail bars.
For brunch, head to The Liberty Breakfast Room, then dive into history at the Mykonos Archaeological Museum or the Folklore Museum, home to fascinating artifacts, ceramics, and textiles.
From Chora’s port, set off on day trips to Delos, the mythological birthplace of Apollo, or Naxos, an island rich in Greek history, stunning beaches, and a growing reputation for gastronomic experiences—don’t miss Yazoo for cocktails and Cretan-Naxian cuisine.
As the sun sets, Chora transforms into a nightlife hotspot, with top dining spots like Pasta Fresca Barkia for seafood pasta, BAOs for cocktails with a view, and Lola for an intimate, lively ambiance.

Those still craving bohemian Mykonos beach clubs will find Alemagou on Ftelia Beach and Principote on Panormos Beach, two of the island’s finest. Ftelia Beach, a windsurfer’s paradise, remains refreshingly uncrowded even in peak season due to its strong northern winds.
