Yachting in Mykonos, Greece

Mykonos is one of the Cyclades Islands in the Aegean Sea. Commonly referred to as the “Ibiza of Greece”, Mykonos is famous for its influx of models and celebrities during the summer months who are attracted to the island due to its late night parties featuring the world’s top DJs. But Mykonos has more to offer than simply only partying; it is an island that offers exquisite gourmet food, cultural activities, and private beaches and coves. Mkyono’s landmarks include its iconic 16th Century windmills, Little Venice and white houses with blue doors and windows. Mykonos Town, or as it is known locally “Chora”, is home to the island’s famous windmills. For many centuries the mills were used to refine grains, but with the progress of technology, they are now either used as private homes or as museums. The most famous ones, the (Kato Myloi), stand on a hill facing the sea; the sunset view from the mills is one of the best in Mykonos. Little Venice is another iconic landmark in Mykonos.
