Windmills of Mykonos

I would give this more stars if not for the huge tourist crowds and the ridiculous prices of the restaurants. The souvenirs were also more expensive than other tourist destinations. But the island is indeed beautiful and the scenery is definitely very photogenic. It gets quite loud and festive in the evening. Good for those who love bustling and busy atmosphere with breathtaking views. For those who like quieter places you can always steer away from the shore into the alleyways where there a small hidden gems.

One of Mykonos top landmarks, always full of people so I decided to wake up earlier and be there around 6:15 am for sunrise. You can see the results, not a single person did so and I had a lot of time to change my spots and play with sun. Go there between 6:00 and 6:30 and skip the crowds and boring daily photos with tens of other people. I am not a photographer, I just wanted to try my luck to wake up earlier and every day there were not a single individual. And those mills are simply stunning

Great views and lovely place to visit. Very big tourist destination and caters to shopping. However, there are some nice bakeries and places to eat scattered throughout. Huge photo opportunities as a traveler.

Signature landmark is a must to visit if you going to travel to Mykonos in the first time. Even in summer, it is very windy location. Hence, if you wanna take photos, prepare some hat or tie your hair properly. From this location , it is just a few minutes to walk to Little Venice so plan a whole day here.

Great views, plenty to see and do. If you are taking a cruise it’s a bit of a walk but very doable. There’s a lot to do throughout the walk. Plenty of stores and restaurants along the path.

Great views of the area from this site and the windmills themselves are beautiful! These windmills are reproductions of windmills used to process grain in the late 1800's. They do not actually spin. The local pelican , named Petros, often visits the windmills. There is a road as well as wide shallow steps that lead up to the windmill. I think this would be challenging in a wheelchair. Stroller could handle the road but you would need to watch out for possible traffic. There is no cost to walk up and see the windmills. When we visited there was aman with a donkey that you could pay to take pictures with.

We stopped in Mykonos Greece while on a cruise of the Mediterranean. The sight from the sea as our ship approached was unbelievably beautiful. And as we climbed up to the village and walked over to see the windmills, picture perfect views were everywhere. The windmills were beautiful. We took lots of pictures and the found lots of choices for drinks and food.

Ok so you gotta go at sunrise before the crowds and get some very good pics of these lovely old-school wind mills that the island is know for and in every mykonos pic you see ,, I think I did ok with mine ,,but I recommend definitely seeing this location at anytime, as it is a sight to see.
