THINGS TO KNOW *before visiting Mykonos*🌺
I visited Mykonos because it’s one of those Greek islands you see so many photos of on social media & it seems like everyone goes! It’s a gorgeous island with a unique town & beautiful beaches, so it makes sense! I’m glad I went because I had a great time, but next time I visit Greece, I will probably choose a less touristy island 🧿
Here are things to know before visiting Mykonos:
1. It’s a very crowded & popular island.
2. If you want photos without people in the background, wake up super early before the tours & ferry boats dock!
3. They jack the prices up here.

Mykonos is renowned for its stunning beaches, vibrant nightlife, and picturesque town, but it’s important to be prepared before your visit. Known for being quite crowded, this island attracts tourists from all over the world, particularly during peak season. To avoid the hustle and bustle, consider traveling during the shoulder seasons when the crowds are thinner, and the weather is still pleasant. Another key point to keep in mind is the cost of dining and activities in Mykonos. Being a popular tourist destination, prices can be significantly higher than on less-visited Greek islands. Don’t be surprised if you need to budget a lot more for meals at beachfront restaurants or excursions. It’s a good idea to research dining options and pre-book activities where possible to secure the best rates. Additionally, exploring local markets can provide more affordable culinary experiences. If you're keen on capturing beautiful photos without the clutter of tourists, rising early is essential. The golden hour offers stunning lighting and fewer crowds, allowing for perfect shots of both the landscape and the iconic windmills. Lastly, be sure to soak in the culture by engaging with local traditions. Attend local festivals and try local delicacies, or take part in traditional dance classes. Such experiences will allow you to connect deeper with the island beyond the typical tourist attractions and create more memorable moments on your trip.
