Do you have to pay an entrance fee for beaches in Mykonos?

I know many beaches on popular islands require you to pay a fee to sit on the beach chairs. Is Mykonos the same way? I hate paying to use the beach

Unfortunately many beaches will require you to pay, it's the sad reality but many businesses are struggling and need to profit from the tourism

Beaches provide excellent facilities for which one has to pay, you can take your towel and sit on the sand on many beaches,no problems...

Be aware that while in a 'regular' beach in Greece, the fee for a beach chair is 5-10 Euros; in Mykonos the fee can get up to 80 euros. So ask first so that you don't get cough by surprise.

I am laughing!..... try €200 for a beach chairs in some places.. There are countless beaches where one can put towel on the sand and chill...I did it all the time even though I knew all the beach renters, something nice about lying on the sand...

It's pretty common to pay to use a beach chair and umbrella because it's all about renting the space. Greece isn't the only place where I have encountered this. However, I think that 80 Euros, 200 Euros, etc sounds a bit extreme. That is so unfortunate! For those prices you would think it was a VIP thing, or that you rented a cabana and not just a chair and umbrella. Some of the quieter, tucked away beaches maybe wouldn't charge so much, or anything at all really. However, those beaches probably wouldn't have facilities.

Very true,in Mykonos it is always a hot sizzling topic about rivalry and who has the 'Pull' in the summer,I lived in Kalafatis, where if one eats at local taverna,one can use the beach chairs for free, now move over to Kalo Livadi and we meet the big players with high profile clientele and beach chairs and Cabanas to match,go a bit further down we have Lindsay Lohan beach cabanas,and then over to Psarou and Nammos and the high rollers reside and nothing but fizz flowing all day !,Riva toys moored with ambience to match, the chairs and umbrellas are truly first class, one doesn't ask price for anything,one just pays!

Sorry for bumping into an old conversation. From my experience, many popular beaches in Greece, including those in Mykonos, have entrance fees and charge for beach chairs and umbrellas. However some beaches are free to access, but they may be less crowded and have limited amenities. It's always a good idea to research the specific beach you plan to visit beforehand to see if there are any fees. Also, use pay stub creator to manage these fees more efficiently. Good luck!
