Discover the best of Mykonos with a perfect balance of relaxation and exploration. Begin your journey from either Tourlos New Port or the Old Port and head to Elia Beach, one of the island’s most stunning stretches of golden sand and crystal-clear water. Here you’ll have around three hours of leisure time—swim in the Aegean, unwind on the beach, try out exciting watersports, or simply enjoy a refreshing drink or snack at a seaside taverna.
Afterward, transfer to Mykonos Town at the Old Port, where you can choose to begin your own self-guided discovery. Wander the maze of charming streets, explore boutique shops and art galleries, and admire iconic landmarks such as the Windmills, Little Venice, and the Paraportiani Church.
At the end of your visit, you’ll board your transportation for the return to Tourlos (New Port). Guests who prefer may remain in Mykonos Town to continue exploring and make their own way back to their cruise ship or accommodation.
