15 Destinations To Visit This Summer

7 Mykonos

As travel sites will note, Mykonos is the center of all sailing. The Greek island between Tinos, Syros, Paros and Naxos, benefits from the summer season as the Mediterranean island turns into Greece’s biggest party mecca. It draws travelers from around the world as the bars, clubs and beach parties aren’t sparse and stay alive well into the early hours of the morning. It’s also a great example of the architecture of ancient cities with cube-shaped buildings, winding roads and beautiful churches that give the island a sense of tradition.

Mykonos’ biggest draw is their silky sand beaches as visitors often come to see them and embrace the nude concept. The attitude also par-lays to the Psarou and Paradise beaches which always get an early start and don’t clear out until the last person leaves the following day. Stores cater to wealthy clients but if you’re a fan of daytime sights, there’s the Ccladic-style buildings of Chora, the windmills of Kato Myli and the ornate temples of Delos. These sites help tourists discover the perfect Greek mix of sophistication and relaxation and don’t pressure you to bring back an expensive souvenir to your homeland.
