Mykonos - Know Before You Go

WHEN

Best time to go to Mykonos is May – September.  

June and July are great months to enjoy the Greek Islands, especially Mykonos.  It’s busy, yet not overwhelming like it is in August when seemingly every Italian in the world descends onto the island.  May and September are calm, warm and beautiful if you’re more looking to just get away than party Greek style.
