Yakinthos Residence | Sea view Studios, Apartments, and Rooms in Panormos, Mykonos

It should come as no surprise that our favorite beach in Mykonos is our own Panormos Beach. Secluded from the hustle and bustle of the major beaches in town, Panormos Beach is the perfect place to unwind. The beach is located in a sheltered cove so you can enjoy the sun, sea and sand without the high winds. This beach is an ideal destination in Mykonos for couples looking for a more romantic atmosphere. But don’t be fooled, the August full moon party at Panormos is a sight to be seen. Panormos Beach is the perfect place for your relaxing getaway.

Those who love to party should not miss the Paradise and Super Paradise Beaches. These are some of the most popular beaches on the island, attracting a young and hip crowd to the day and night parties. The nightclubs at Paradise Beach are top notch, attracting famous DJs from around the world. Super Paradise is the most well known gay and lesbian destination on the island.

The Kalo Livadi and Psarou Beaches are perfect destinations for more cosmopolitan visitors. Both feature abundant umbrellas, lounge chairs and beach bars as well as easy access to Mykonos’ luxury hotels. Psarou beach is a favorite with celebrities visiting the island. Be sure to arrive early or make a reservation as popular spots fill up fast.

Aside from our own Panormos Beach, we recommend the secluded Agios Sostis Beach (clothing optional!) and Fokos Beach. Though a little further away, Fokos Beach does attract some people for its relaxed atmosphere and traditional beach tavern.

Mykonos has so much to offer for people who love to snorkel and surf. Elia beach is fantastic for anyone interested in water sports and the crystal clear waters of Agios Ioannis Beach are a paradise for snorkelers.

For families with children we recommend one of the more sheltered beaches, our own Panormos offers calm waters as do the Agios Ioannis and and Fokos Beaches. Elia Beach has a lifeguard on duty to keep the little ones safe.

Super Paradise beach, with its nudist bathing area is the most famous gay and lesbian beach on the island (though hetero guests are of course welcome). However lately Elia beach has been gaining popularity with gay and lesbian visitors to Mykonos. Nudist bathing is permitted on this beach.

For those guests looking to catch a wave, Ftelia, Agia Anna, Kalafatis and Korfos Beaches are the place to be! Ftelia and Korfos beaches are less suitable for swimmers due to the high winds close to shore. At Agia Anna and Kalafatis beaches, the winds are further offshore making these a better all-around destination.
