The stone disappears under the lime that erases the sharp angles, rounds the steps, forms and alleys which cars have no access. Colorful boats lapping the tidal pebbles, extending the pavement cafes. Here you are at Mykonos town, the most “in” summer resort, with its wonderful beaches, with an atmosphere of permanent party and intense nightlife! In the center and east of the island, time seems to stand still preserving the tranquility and originality of villages.
Area 84 km², 81 km of coastline.
