Mykonos

Mykonos pairs a compact Cycladic town with a wider island. Its most distinctive short walk joins Little Venice's sea-edge balconies and the nearby windmills.

Why go

In Mykonos town, houses at Little Venice meet the water so closely that the balconies seem to hang over it. The windmills nearby add a second landmark to the same outing. The island also has a longer history tied to neighbouring Delos, which once made Mykonos a place of supply and transit, and to the Greek independence movement.

What to look for

  • Colourful wooden balconies project over the sea at Little Venice.
  • The windmills stand beside Mykonos town.
  • Manto Mavrogenous is commemorated in the town's main square.

Useful to know

  • Start with Little Venice and the windmills as one town walk; explore the rest of the island as a separate plan.
  • If the link with ancient Delos interests you, treat that neighbouring island as its own visit.
