Paradise Beach

4.1/5
112 reviews
Paradise Beachis located on the southern coast of Mykonos, Greece, and is an iconic seaside attraction on the island. It features an open bay, stretches of fine golden sand, and clear azure waters, showcasing typical Aegean coastal scenery. The beach stretches along the coast, with soft sand glowing warmly in the sunlight, while the water transitions from a shallow cyan near the shore to a deep, clear blue, offering a refreshing and relaxing experience. Because the bay faces south, its topography is relatively sheltered from the strong winds that prevail in summer. Even when it is windy elsewhere on the island, the sea here can sometimes remain relatively calm, making it suitable for swimming, sunbathing, and seaside relaxation. Strolling along the beach, you can see several beach clubs distributed in different areas, with parasols, sun loungers, and seaside lounge areas dotting the golden sand. During the day, visitors can lie on the beach to enjoy the sun or step into the cool water to admire the vast horizon in the distance.Mykonos · 34.3km from Naxos

Oia is located on the northern cape of Santorini, built along the cliffs, with white-walled, blue-domed houses and churches layered along the inner cliffs of the caldera. Sunset is the most iconic view here. Each evening, visitors follow the main path to the town's western end. The west end has two main free viewing spots: one is a seaside platform beside the castle ruins, where the remaining stone tower walls hang on the cliff edge, offering expansive views, and the other is a small square below the windmills, where several traditional windmills are silhouetted against the sunset. You can also book a cliffside restaurant in advance and dine while watching the sun sink below the horizon. The town is also worth exploring slowly during the day. Walking the cliff path through narrow white alleys, you will pass several blue-domed churches, and the three connected blue-domed churches make the classic postcard scene. A few old windmills stand at the town's northern end, another iconic view. At night, shops along the stone alleys mostly stay open late, and bars gradually become lively. If you have time, choose a seafront cave house for a night, and when you open the window you will see the sea toward the caldera.Santorini · 71.2km from Naxos

View of Alefkandra (Little Venice)is located on the waterfront of Mykonos Town on the island of Mykonos, Greece, and is one of the island's iconic sights. There is no wide coastal boulevard here, but rather a row of ancient mansions clinging to the sea. Colorful walls, white exteriors, wooden galleries, and seaside balconies together form a unique coastal view. Red, blue, and ochre window frames dot the pristine white walls, while wooden balconies hang over the sea, swaying gently in the sea breeze and exuding a leisurely and romantic atmosphere. Walking into the neighborhood, narrow, winding cobblestone alleys stretch between the white houses. Turning a corner, you can often encounter a brightly colored window, a quiet little courtyard, or a hidden corner with a view of the blue sea.Mykonos · 38.4km from Naxos

Santoriniis located in the southern Aegean Sea of Greece and is a crescent-shaped island formed by volcanic activity that attracts many tourists. The western side of the island features rolling cliffs, with blue-domed churches and white-walled houses layered along the cliff tops, overlooking the deep, calm caldera bay. When the sun shines, the blue and white buildings reflect against the azure sea, creating an unforgettable Mediterranean landscape. The island's main commercial and transportation hubs, restaurants, cafes, and specialty shops are distributed along the hillsides. The island is also famous for its romantic streets, exquisite white architecture, and magnificent sunset views, attracting tourists from all over the world. Strolling along the narrow cobblestone streets, you can see blue domes, windmills, and terraces facing the sea everywhere, making you feel as if you are in a postcard world.Santorini · 79.2km from Naxos

If you're young, that beach is a must-visit on Mykonos. You can eat, drink, and have fun in a beautiful environment, carefree as a group of young people party, with the waves crashing around you to your rhythm. That's the scene I witnessed.

As evening falls in Santorini, tourists have already found their vantage points, sitting or standing quietly, waiting. The once bustling paths gradually empty out, the crowds converging on the cliff edge, becoming the first fixed scene before sunset. Standing on the steps of the blue and white houses, watching the sunset transform the sky from orange-pink to golden-red, then slowly into a golden hue, the town itself seems draped in a golden veil, so beautiful it makes you forget everything. Finally, the entire sunset glow sinks into the Aegean Sea, even the surface is covered with shimmering gold, the wind carries the light scent of sea salt and olive trees, there is no noise, only the sound of the waves lapping the shore, slowing down along with the light and shadow.

I didn't expect there is such a place in the city center. The transportation here is also very easy. It is really beautiful here, completely different from the hustle and bustle downstairs. I really like the scenery here, which is very Greek in style.

We experienced a comfortable tour for 3 days on the beautiful island. We drove to a lot of scenery. It was very easy to rent a car or scooter. Then you can go anywhere more convenient. Finally It was very unforgettable journey ☺️

Castro is a beautiful seaside town with a unique South American style. There are simple residential buildings and historic churches in the town. It is spring-like all year round, with charming scenery and pleasant climate. It is definitely a place worth spending money to relax and vacation.
