In Mykonos, all the tourist activity is concentrated on Chora, the capital, and the beautiful beaches to the south. The north, on the other hand, has had a slightly different fate. From east to west, the coast is mainly rocky and jagged, with only a handful of sandy bays... On a windy day, it's almost inhospitable!
The Cyclades and Mykonos are particularly exposed each summer to the Meltem, a northerly wind that blows in gusts, sometimes powerful and lasting several days in a row, making the sea rough and lazing on the beach impossible.
