We visit the lovely colourful beach of Kalafatis. On our return trip to Chora we call at the traditional village of Ano Mera and the monastery of Panagia Tourliani, founded in 1542.

It houses a wonderful collection of icons and has a beautiful belltower and marble fountain, well worth seeing. The delightful village square of Ano Mera is the perfectspot for a short break and maybe a coffee. You’ll be relaxing in one of the island’s oldest communities.

Back in Mykonos Town we stop at the Paraportiani church (which literally means Our Lady of the Side Gate and is actually made up of five churches) and the Folklore Museum. Here you can see many exhibits including traditional costumes, furniture and personal items typical of Mykonos life in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It’s a fascinating glimpse into the island of more than 100 years ago.

We finish at Little Venice,the neighbourhood of Alefkhandra to admire those famous windmills, a sight you can surely never tire of.

Tourmay not be available at certain times of the year.
