Ornos
Calm water, close to town
About Ornos
Ornos is the easiest beach base on Mykonos: close to town by bus or taxi, with a sheltered sandy bay that stays calm when the meltemi blows, and a good choice of restaurants and hotels. In summer, water taxis leave from here for Paradise, Super Paradise and the other south-coast beaches, so you can beach-hop without a car.
Why it's on our list
- Sheltered, shallow bay
- Water taxis along the coast
- Good family base
Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Ornos before you go.
