Of course,so let's begin....in Ano Mera...I used to eat in all of those 7/8 tavernas,so take your pick.... for me Taverna Vagelis in Platia Ano Mera.....Angelici and Stavros Starvakopolous ... they welcomed me back in 1994 and I treated it a like a home ever since...... That Taverna has a very long beautiful history.... you will see it when you go inside it back in time..... Give Angelica and Stavros a big hug from me.... Angelici is a Tavernayari....she is an amazing cook!!.....she used to fry gavro for me in onions until brown... enjoy the Filoxenia.... please don't forget to write a reviews here.. .... ....In Paraga beach....Tasos Taverna.... Say hi to George from Hash..the whole island used to get together....on the way to Platis Yalos... Andrea and Maria's taverna [authentic Greek food]....opposite Skiios Hotel... give Andrea and Maria my love.... please pop in opposite to say Yasou to George and his mother from me at Skiios Hotel....

Ooo…what are the small plates? I’m thinking skordalia and an aubergine dip…
Yes exactly :) the aubergine dip had red peppers though, not my favorite take but very good nonetheless

Did you manage to visit any of the Tavernas I suggested?.... How was your holiday there?
I tried Tasos Taverna thank you so much for the suggestion!!!!! I wish I took pictures but I ate the food so quickly that I didn't get the chance. The owners were sadly not there so I couldn't say hello, but the service was absolutely excellent and the food was amazing. I would say this holiday to Mykonos was the best one yet, the island was a little bit less crowded than the other times that I had been :) :) :) thank you again for the suggestions

Best photo spots in Mykonos?

I want to document my next trip to Mykonos with some great photos.

Does anyone have personal favorites or insider tips on the best spots for photography in Mykonos? I'm interested in both, the well-known attractions and those off-the-beaten-path locations that offer unique perspectives of the island's charm.

Also, if there are specific times of day that bring out the magic of these places (think golden hour or less crowded moments), I'd love to hear about that too!

Any tips on local etiquette regarding photography would also be greatly appreciated. I aim to be respectful of the people and the culture during my visit.

Nightlife question about Mykonos

I have seen footage of fun-looking club atmospheres on Mykonos. I went last year and couldn't find those parties! I want to try again the next time I am in Greece, probably in September.

I’d love to find places that strike a balance between great music (preferably a mix of international and local beats), a lively but not overly crowded atmosphere, and of course, stunning settings that scream ‘Mykonos’!

Does anyone have personal favorites or hidden gems they'd be willing to share?

Exploring Little Venice in Mykonos?

I'm planning a trip to the enchanting area of Little Venice in Mykonos and I've heard so much about its stunning views and quirky charm. I'm reaching out to this community because I know there are a lot of well-traveled folks around here who could share their insights.

Can anyone suggest the absolute must-see attractions and activities in Little Venice? I'm interested in anything from historical sites, picturesque spots for photography, to the best places to relax and watch the sunset.

Also, any tips on hidden gems or less-known spots you can recommend would be great too!

Thanks!

Shopping from local artisans while in Mykonos question

I'm planning a trip to Mykonos soon and one thing I'm really excited about is exploring the local artisan scene. I've heard that the island is home to many talented craftsmen and artists, and I'd love to bring back some unique and authentic souvenirs.

However, I'm not quite sure where to start or what to look for when shopping from local artisans. I'd really appreciate any tips or recommendations from those who have experience with this.

Do you have any favorite artisan shops or markets in Mykonos that you would recommend? What are some typical items or crafts that I should keep an eye out for? Any advice on how to distinguish authentic, locally made products from mass-produced tourist trinkets?

I'm also interested in learning about any cultural or historical significance behind certain artisanal crafts on the island. Understanding the stories behind the products would definitely enhance my shopping experience.

Packing for Mykonos Trip

I am going to be in Mykonos mid-September. Is it still warm enough for some solid beach time?

During the trip we will also be sightseeing, going out for dinner, doing some boating (friends), and maybe renting jet skis or something like that.

Latest I have ever been to Mykonos has been mid-August. Is the weather in September that much different?
