Top Things To Do In Mykonos

Explore Mykonos Town

Mykonos Town, also known as Chora, is the heart of the island. There are a number of cute boutiques, art galleries, and cafes through the narrow alleyways. Mykonos Town is also home to the iconic windmills that overlook the town. Its white buildings and colorful blue doors/shutters are perfect for gorgeous photos too. And don't forget to explore Little Venice! There are cute restaurants that literally sit on the water's edge. It's the perfect spot to grab a drink and watch the sunset.

Experience The Mykonos Beach Clubs

Mykonos is arguably most famous for its beach clubs and nightlife. The beach clubs, specifically, are something everyone should experience at least once. Not only are they fun, but they attract all types of people from all over the world. Scorpios and Nammos are some of the top (if not, THE top) and upscale beach clubs in Mykonos. Both have gourmet dining options as well.

Watch The Sunset At 180 Sunset Bar

One of our favorite things to do in Mykonos is to watch the sunset at 180 Sunset Bar. We recommend booking ahead of time and reserving the 1st Row Windmill view. For that section, there is a minimum spend of $100€ / person. Each section usually has a minimum spend, but it's not hard to hit the minimum (it's Mykonos after all). 180 Sunset Bar sits on a hilltop overlooking the Aegean Sea and has gorgeous views of the island. The best part of 180 Sunset Bar is the sunset. They make it an experience and even time the sunset to a song. The vibe overall is relaxed, but upbeat. After the sun goes down, a DJ starts playing in one of the lower areas and you can stay as long as you want.
