We were carried away by the wind caressing the arid lands of Mykonos, discovering hidden nooks and crannies that contrasted with the liveliness of the clubs along the island's most famous beaches. In this Mediterranean paradise, the simplicity of authentic flavors conquered our palates, offering us an authentic and unforgettable culinary experience.

Our experience on the island was a true plunge into the heart of Greece, among the iconic symbols of windmills, snow-white buildings silhouetted against the deep blue sea, and breathtaking sunsets. Mykonos is like a spell that transports you to a timeless world of beauty and adventure. Long days spent exploring paradisiacal beaches, such as Elia Beach, become precious moments of relaxation and wonder, with golden sand blending with turquoise waters.



But the authentic essence of Mykonos is found in its enchanting villages, where narrow, winding streets weave between whitewashed houses and picturesque churches, inviting you to discover hidden treasures and enveloping atmospheres, where time seems to expand in an eternal harmony. It is here, in this enchanting setting, that Ano Mera reveals itself as a hidden treasure, offering an unforgettable culinary experience, where the authentic taste of local dishes mixes with the unique atmosphere of an ancient village.

Nothing can compare to the taste of fresh fish enjoyed in a typical Greek taverna, with your feet in the sand as the sun slowly sinks into the sea, creating a magical atmosphere. It is a moment that goes beyond simply eating: each bite becomes a unique experience, accompanied by the sound of the waves lapping against the shore and the salty scent pervading the air. It is an experience that satisfies not only the palate, but also the soul, allowing you to connect in an unforgettable way with nature and the authentic essence of this beautiful Greek island.

Chora, the bustling capital of Mykonos, is an attraction in itself, with its narrow white streets winding through quaint stores and small restaurants always bustling with tourists. At dusk, this town reveals its full splendor, when the sun dips into the horizon and an entire island seems to converge on Chora to witness the magical spectacle of sunset. The enchanted atmosphere becomes palpable as the sky turns shades of orange-red and Little Venice is transformed into a veritable living painting, a moment that remains indelibly etched in the memory of every visitor to Mykonos.
