Mykonos An Essential Guide to Gay Travellers

Mykonos: An Essential Guide to Gay Travellers

Mykonos, the Queen of the Cyclades, is proud to be one of the world’s landmarks of lgbtq+ travelers. Friendly, vibrant, welcoming and colorful!

Homophobia does not fit on the island, you can enjoy what you want without fear, only with passion. In Mykonos, there are no limits, whether you like it or not, and you are absolutely free to live your every moment as you wish. You can flirt, fall in love, love and be loved, true and loud.

The island is flooded with charm, with its whitewashed houses and its colorful shutters. The streets, full of people, tell their own stories and enchant you.

Mykonos is a summer carnival of senses, and you can rest assured that it will not let you go. The most impressive thing is that it has retained its traditional elements but at the same time has shaped the culture of the locals so that they are friendly and helpful with lgbtq+ travelers from all over the world.

Here there are, some suggestions for the spiciest points of the island:

Hot beaches, bitches! Sunbathing, lots of flirting, sunburned bodies and swimming. Every beach gets better with beautiful crowds enjoying the sun in their bathing suits – or without them.

Elia Beach: The most popular gay beach in Mykonos and perhaps the most beautiful one. It has an excellent bar for cocktails and dancing. You can go by the waterway, with a water taxi, for a perfect Mykonian experience.

Agrari Beach: The most isolated, yet equally charming beach of the island. For quieter and lonely situations, you have to visit it to see.

Super Paradise: Crystal deep waters, with a beautiful coast and a perfect bar for unforgettable moments! Bonus: Nudity allowed!

Jackie O’: Last but definitely not least. One of the most famous and beautiful gay beach bars in the world that offers you, anything you may need. Coffee, cocktails, and food, next to a beautiful beach.
