According to legend, Mykonos was created in the Gigantomachy, the great war between Zeus and the giants of Greek mythology. When the giants were defeated, they were thrown into the sea where they turned to stone, forming the Cyclades Islands, including Mykonos. This mythological connection is apparent in Mykonos. You can pay a visit to Delos, a nearby small island that was the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis, and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where you can see the remains of ancient temples. On Mykonos itself, there are plenty of things to keep everyone entertained, from nightclubs and shopping in Mykonos Town, catching some rays on one of the island’s many beautiful beaches, and, of course, a photo stop at the iconic Kato Mili, the line of windmills looking out over the sea.
