View of Alefkandra (Little Venice)

5.4
4.6/5
90 reviews
View of Alefkandra (Little Venice)is located on the waterfront of Mykonos Town on the island of Mykonos, Greece, and is one of the island's iconic sights. There is no wide coastal boulevard here, but rather a row of ancient mansions clinging to the sea. Colorful walls, white exteriors, wooden galleries, and seaside balconies together form a unique coastal view. Red, blue, and ochre window frames dot the pristine white walls, while wooden balconies hang over the sea, swaying gently in the sea breeze and exuding a leisurely and romantic atmosphere. Walking into the neighborhood, narrow, winding cobblestone alleys stretch between the white houses. Turning a corner, you can often encounter a brightly colored window, a quiet little courtyard, or a hidden corner with a view of the blue sea.Mykonos · 4 km from Platis Gialos

Paradise Beach

Paradise Beachis located on the southern coast of Mykonos, Greece, and is an iconic seaside attraction on the island. It features an open bay, stretches of fine golden sand, and clear azure waters, showcasing typical Aegean coastal scenery. The beach stretches along the coast, with soft sand glowing warmly in the sunlight, while the water transitions from a shallow cyan near the shore to a deep, clear blue, offering a refreshing and relaxing experience. Because the bay faces south, its topography is relatively sheltered from the strong winds that prevail in summer. Even when it is windy elsewhere on the island, the sea here can sometimes remain relatively calm, making it suitable for swimming, sunbathing, and seaside relaxation. Strolling along the beach, you can see several beach clubs distributed in different areas, with parasols, sun loungers, and seaside lounge areas dotting the golden sand. During the day, visitors can lie on the beach to enjoy the sun or step into the cool water to admire the vast horizon in the distance.Mykonos · 960m from Platis Gialos

The harbour windmill, also known as the Katyr Milli windmill, is a five Cycladic-style windmill built in the 16th century with a thatched roof. Here you can see the beautiful view of the whole city. The windmills stir the sea breeze, the seagulls in the Aegean Sea and the characteristic white houses on the island have a panoramic view, and Mykonos is also called "the island of windmills". In Mykonos, where the wind is strong, windmills were originally used to grind wheat, but now they are no longer in use, but they have become a beautiful landscape.Mykonos · 3.9 km from Platis Gialos

I didn't expect there is such a place in the city center. The transportation here is also very easy. It is really beautiful here, completely different from the hustle and bustle downstairs. I really like the scenery here, which is very Greek in style.

If you're young, that beach is a must-visit on Mykonos. You can eat, drink, and have fun in a beautiful environment, carefree as a group of young people party, with the waves crashing around you to your rhythm. That's the scene I witnessed.

These windmills where used to grind grains in olden days before electricity. Probably 17th or 18th century. However not these 7 windmills are been preserved and serve as the icon of Mykonos.Spectacular view of the old port and little Venice... Lots of parking space though very crowded.. Amazing hotel south of the windmills.You can see the windmills from practically every hill in Mykonos.

Delos is an island in the Aegean Sea, the heart of the Cyclades. This time it was because I booked a cruise trip, and this was one of the stops. I finally went for a swim in the sea. Although it was extremely salty, it was still quite refreshing. There are many cats on the island. If you don’t visit any musee, you don’t have to pay extra. The two of us didn't follow the tour guide and stumbled onto the most classic place.

Beautiful and magnificent. Wear comfortable shoes and take a hat. I wasn’t well prepared for the amount of walking.
