Hey everyone, I am thinking of traveling to Mykonos this year but I know that the island is known for partying and bars aka a lot of people in close spaces. Is there still stuff to do in Mykonos while social distancing and staying covid friendly?
 
Great question!

My thought is spend as much time outside as possible (with the amazing beaches in Mykonos), it should not be hard to do! This should make it easier for nice, outdoor social distancing!

Yes! If you're careful enough, it can be achieved. I would recommend staying in the town (and not going to bars and clubs) and going during the off-season. Your best bet is June and September.

I would be pretty careful, small islands aren't really the best place to socially distance. Maybe getting an airbnb over a hotel would be a bit of a safer option. Good luck!
 

Favorite Tips for Enjoying Mykonos Beyond the Party Scene

I’m planning a trip to Mykonos and want to experience the island beyond its famous party scene. While the nightlife looks fun, I’m more interested in exploring its culture, history, and hidden gems.

I’d love your tips on must-see spots, local experiences, or quieter beaches that showcase the island’s charm. Are there any scenic walks, traditional villages, or unique local foods I should try? I’m also curious about off-the-beaten-path activities, like visiting family-run tavernas, historical sites, or taking a boat tour to nearby islands.

If you’ve been to Mykonos and discovered its quieter side, I’d love to hear your recommendations! What made your experience special?

Finding Luxury Accommodations in Mykonos?

I am looking for recommendations on luxury accommodations. I'm interested in staying somewhere with stunning views, excellent service, and top-notch amenities. Ideally, I'd like a hotel or villa that's close to the main attractions but still offers some privacy and relaxation. Any specific hotels or areas you would suggest? Additionally, are there any booking tips or websites that offer great deals on luxury stays in Mykonos? Your advice and personal experiences would be greatly appreciated.

This trip is not for this year, it's for next year. I thought maybe I would try going this year, but I don't think I have enough time to find something I'll really like.

Is Delos Worth a Day Trip?

I’ll be spending a week in Mykonos soon and was wondering if a day trip to Delos is worth it. I’ve always been intrigued by its history as a sacred island and its connection to Greek mythology, not to mention the ruins I’ve seen in photos look incredible.

Since it’s so close to Mykonos, it seems like an easy trip, but I’d love to hear from anyone who’s been there. Are the archaeological sites as impressive in person as they seem? How much time do you realistically need to explore the island without feeling rushed?

Also, is it better to book a guided tour or just go solo? Any tips on the best way to get there and what to bring?

Mykonos on a Budget?

I'm planning a trip to Mykonos soon, and I've always heard it's a bit on the pricey side. But I'm wondering, is it possible to enjoy Mykonos on a budget? I’d love to hear any tips or advice on how to save money while still experiencing the island’s charm.

For example, are there affordable places to stay that are still close to the main attractions or beaches? What are some wallet-friendly dining options where I can enjoy local food without breaking the bank? Also, any tips for getting around the island cheaply—would public transport be a good option?

I'm open to suggestions on hidden gems or less touristy spots that offer a more affordable experience. I mean, is it even possible?

Good Museums to Visit in Mykonos

I know, we don't really think of Museums when we think of Mykonos. But, I am looking for other things to do besides sitting at the beach and going to clubs. Any advice on which museums are worth my time?

I'm particularly interested in learning about the island’s history, art, and culture. Could anyone recommend the top museums to visit? I’ve heard about the Archaeological Museum and the Aegean Maritime Museum, but are there any others that are worth checking out?

Additionally, any tips on the best times to visit these museums to avoid crowds would be greatly appreciated.
