The SeaBus is available from the Town of Mykonos, also known as Chora and the Old Port, and goes to the New Port of Tourlos and vice-versa. The New Port of Tourlos is where you will also find the cruise dock. At Old Port Mykonos there is the bus station and taxi station. Wherever you are coming from in Mykonos, you will have access to the SeaBus. The SeaBus departs every 30 minutes, so if you’re traveling with the intention of seeing more sites on the other side, you won’t have to wait long. I love using it and would really recommend.

This is great advice. I have actually never used it and have only taken ferries, but I think this is a great option for people that appears to be more efficient than the Ferry in certain situations.

Staying in a villa rental on Mykonos?

We’re considering staying in a villa on Mykonos because our group is fairly large, and it seems like it might be more practical (and fun) than booking multiple hotel rooms. I’ve started looking online, but honestly the number of options is overwhelming, and I’m not sure what the best approach is.

For those who have done this before, how did you find your rental? Did you go through a villa agency, booking platforms, or local contacts? I’ve read that location makes a big difference depending on whether you want nightlife, beaches, or something quieter, so I’m also trying to figure out what areas make the most sense. If you’ve stayed in a Mykonos villa with a group, I’d love to hear what worked or what didn't work, as well.

Best Mykonos Sunset Spots?

I’m starting to plan a trip to Mykonos and one of the things I’d really love to experience is a beautiful sunset, but ideally somewhere beyond the most crowded, obvious spots. I know places like Little Venice are famous for sunsets, but I’m wondering if there are quieter locations that still offer amazing views.

Are there beaches, viewpoints, or even small chapels or hillsides where you’ve watched the sunset that felt special? I’d especially love places that feel a bit more relaxed or off the beaten path, even if they require a short walk or drive to get there.

If you’ve been to Mykonos, where did you have your favorite sunset moment? Was it planned, or something you discovered by accident? Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Which Mykonos beaches are best when the meltemi winds are strong?

I'm hoping to visit Mykonos on a future trip to Greece, and I've been doing some research about the island's beaches. One thing that keeps coming up is the meltemi winds, which apparently can get pretty strong during the summer months!

I've read that some beaches are much more exposed to the wind than others, and I'm wondering which ones are best for swimming and relaxing when the meltemi is blowing.

From what I've gathered, beaches on the southern side of Mykonos tend to be more sheltered, but I'm not sure which ones offer the most protection. I've seen Ornos, Platis Gialos, and Psarou mentioned as possibilities.

For those who have spent time in Mykonos during the windy season, which beaches would you recommend? Are there certain beaches you would avoid altogether on particularly windy days?

I'd love to know what to expect before planning my trip!

Pros and Cons - Mykonos Town vs Staying Outside the Center

I’ve been to Mykonos a few times and have always stayed close to the center of Mykonos Town. It’s been convenient, especially for walking everywhere, being near restaurants, and not having to think too much about transportation.

That said, I’m considering going again and wondering if it might be worth staying outside the center this time. I’ve never done it, so I’m not sure what the experience is like in comparison.

For those who have stayed in both areas, how did it differ for you? Did you find it more relaxing outside of Town, or did the added logistics make things harder? I’m especially curious about getting around at night and whether it takes away from the overall experience.

Would you choose to stay outside the center again, or do you feel like being based in Town is still the better option?

Best Sunsets in Mykonos?

Much has been said about the sunsets in Santorini, and for the longest time I just assumed that was the place in Greece for sunset views. But recently, a friend came back from Mykonos and shared some absolutely gorgeous sunset photos, golden light over the water, soft colors, even the windmills in the background. I honestly had no idea Mykonos could look like that at sunset.

Now I’m curious if this is something people seek out there, or if it’s more of a hidden bonus compared to Santorini.

Do you have any favorite sunset spots on Mykonos? Are there specific beaches, viewpoints, or areas in town that really stand out? I’d love to hear recommendations before I start planning a trip.
