rowlady Posted June 8, 2015 #1 Share Posted June 8, 2015 I will be in port for a long day (8am - 11pm) in August and have hoped to visit Delos (10am tour that will end at 1:30), and then try to get to a beach (Elia or Agrari but am open to suggestions) and then spend some time walking around Mykonos town. Is this too ambitious? I know I will be in port for a long time but don't want to be rushing from place to place with no time to really enjoy anything. Any opinions or advice? On a side note - is it true that taxi's to the beach are hard to come by so bus would be the best way to get there and back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Hlitner Posted June 8, 2015 #2 Share Posted June 8, 2015 We think your plan is reasonably given your long port day. As to getting to the beach, we usually use the local buses for that, but our beach of choice is Paradise (and sometimes Super Paradise). With such a late departure you will have plenty of time to explore Mykonos Town after the beach. We also recommend stopping for a drink/snack at one of the cafes located on the town harbor.

zqvol Posted June 9, 2015 #3 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Seems fine to me. We have done something similar, and other than being hot and tired had no problem at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annabel4 Posted June 9, 2015 #5 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Yes definately go to Paradise or Super Paradise it's really worth visiting it!By the time you have so many hours there I believe you will have time to follow your program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willefamily1 Posted June 10, 2015 #7 Share Posted June 10, 2015 What's the easiest way to get to paradise beach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cinnamon Posted June 23, 2015 #8 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Last week we were there. The Independently run boats to Delos were on the dockside filling up by 9.30 for 10.00 am departure. Here is my blog. Mykonos was Day 7. http://boards.cruisecritic.co.uk/showthread.php?t=2221851&highlight=not+quite+live# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachmudhut Posted June 25, 2015 #9 Share Posted June 25, 2015 What's the easiest way to get to paradise beach? If you walk around the quay to the bus station, you will find a small minivan which runs every half hour to Paradise Beach. This minivan is run by the resort and very cheap. It doesn't start until about 10.00 though. It is a bit hectic around the coach station but if you ask, they will tell you where this minivan waits.

Rare Got2Cruise Posted June 25, 2015 #10 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I'm not sure Paradise is the beach for us. We prefer quiet but wish to rent loungers and purchase drinks and lunch. Does anyone have a favorite " boring" beach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
