When to go to Mykonos?
Whitewashed cubes, blue shutters and lanes laid out to confuse: Mykonos town is a maze with the sea at the end of it. Windmills stand above the harbour, and Little Venice puts its balconies directly in the spray. Paradise beach draws the crowds, while the boat to Delos crosses to marble ruins and stone lions among the scrub.
The best time to go
For the best weather in Mykonos, aim for February to November.
