12 IRRESISTIBLE BEACHES OF MYKONOS!

I can't understand why this beach is not marked es a beach in the map of earth uses of the PD of 2005 (ZOE zones). Is it a "mistake"? Or is it not ???

This beach has an impressive stretch of sandy shoreline and offers a handful of amenities such as a restaurant, restrooms, and sun loungers. For those interested in renting sun loungers, the Saint Stefanos Cafe offers them for €10 per bed for the day. If you're visiting Mykonos for the day on a cruise and dock at the Tourlos Mykonos New Port, this beach is an ideal spot to spend your time. While it's a 15-minute walk away, keep in mind that only 5-10 minutes of the walk is uphill. Don't let the fact that you have to walk on the side of the road deter you from visiting this beach. It's perfectly safe, and drivers will slow down as they see you.

The beach was stunning and pleasantly peaceful during our visit, with a sparse crowd. It's conveniently accessible by bus from Old Port for a reasonable fare of €2.30 per trip. If you prefer to save on sun loungers, there are some spots where you can bring your own umbrella. We purchased ours for €15 in Mykonos Town. Additionally, there's a sizable restaurant on the beach that boasts clean and well-maintained restrooms.

We arrived at the beach in late October and were pleasantly surprised to find it deserted. The absence of any bars, chairs or restaurants gave the area a peaceful and serene atmosphere. However, the lack of shade made it necessary for us to bring our own umbrellas. The water was crystal clear, but the temperature was a bit chilly. Despite our initial concerns about crowds, it seems that the season had ended, and we had the beach to ourselves. We plan to return, bringing our own food and supplies for a relaxing day in this tranquil setting.

Visiting the beach is a great way to spend the summer! You can easily get to the public beach from Mykonos Town by bus.

What I found appealing about this beach in comparison to others is its lack of overcrowding, which is a common issue with the beaches closer to Mykonos. Additionally, the parking is free and there is ample space to lay out your towels. Although the beach is not sandy, it is composed of small, smooth rocks, which is ideal for windy days as sand won't be blowing all over you and your belongings. The water is also fantastic. However, I would advise caution when descending the steep hill, as it can be challenging to handle an ATV on the road.
