Overview

Embark on a picturesque journey around Mykonos, designed to showcase the island’s natural beauty, iconic beaches, and traditional charm.
Your tour begins with a coastal drive past some of Mykonos’ most well-known beaches: Agios Ioannis, Ornos, Paraga, Elia, Kalafatis, and Panormos. There you’ll enjoy sweeping views of golden sands, turquoise waters, and lively beach scenes.
We’ll pause for a short stop in Ano Mera, one of the few traditional villages left on Mykonos. Here, you’ll have about 10 minutes to stretch your legs, explore the peaceful village square, or catch a glimpse of the historic Panagia Tourliani Monastery, a cultural gem.
Continuing on, we drive toward the Armenistis Lighthouse, perched on the island’s northwestern tip, where the views of the rugged coastline and the endless blue of the Aegean Sea are unforgettable.
This tour is ideal for guests who want to take in a variety of Mykonos highlights in a relaxed and scenic way.

What To Expect

Agios Ioannis Beach (Pass By)

Agios Ioannis Beach in Mykonos is a total gem. It’s one of those quieter, more laid-back beaches compared to the wild party spots like Paradise or Super Paradise.

Ornos Beach (Pass By)

Ornos Beach, located approximately 2.5 km southwest of Mykonos Town, is a popular destination for both locals and tourists. Its calm, shallow waters and sandy shore make it particularly suitable for families with children.
Read more

Paraga Beach (Pass By)

Paraga is a perfect mix of chill and party. You’ve got one side that’s all about music, cocktails, and beach clubs, and another side that’s quieter and super relaxed. It’s one of those spots where you can spend the whole day — tan, swim, eat, repeat.

Mykonos Elia Beach (Pass By)

Elia Beach is one of Mykonos's largest and most picturesque beaches, located approximately 12 kilometers southeast of Mykonos Town (Chora). Renowned for its crystal-clear waters and fine golden sand, Elia offers a serene and inviting atmosphere for visitors.
Read more

Kalafatis (Pass By)

Ano Mera

Tucked away in the heart of Mykonos, Ano Mera is a peaceful, traditional village that feels worlds apart from the island’s party scene. It’s the second-largest settlement on the island after Mykonos Town and offers a quiet, local experience that’s hard to find elsewhere on the island.Centered around a charming village square, Ano Mera is lined with whitewashed houses, family-run tavernas, bakeries, and the historic Panagia Tourliani Monastery, a 15th-century gem with impressive wood carvings and religious icons. The atmosphere is calm, welcoming, and refreshingly low-key.Unlike the beach clubs and nightlife hubs, Ano Mera gives visitors a taste of everyday Mykonian life. It’s where locals gather for coffee, afternoon chats, or a slow meal under the trees. It’s also a great base for exploring nearby beaches like Elia, Kalafatis, and Kalo Livadi, all just a short drive away.
