Ultimate summer party guide to clubbing capital of the world -MYKONOS ... #luxurygetaway

If you expecting a travelogue ,I would suggest million other reviews out there .

This writeup is for those who are young at heart & want to experience the vibrant party scene of Mykonos island (& beyond).

Best part of Mykonos is, it allows you to enjoy rollicking nightlife amidst natural exotic settings of gorgeous heavenly sun-kissed beaches or at best in midst of bustling historic cute little town center.

Mykonos nightlife caters to every tastes from ,partying like a rockstar to glam high fashion chic lounges to wild summer break student parties to BPM strict techno addicts to big room EDM, you name it.If you wish you can experience all of them hopping onto different venues in a single day or night.

Nowadays there is big showdown between party islands of Ibiza vs Myknonos vs St Tropez etc.

My verdict: More options, the merrier & I bet Myknos is tied up at the top spot.

Okay ,for some basics before you get started . All my suggestions are for summer months of Jul-early Sept.

First you need to re-arrange your timezone to Mykonos party timezone.

Meaning , life begins only around sunset & ends just after traditional breakfast time. You can leave the island for traditional daytrippers

to enjoy the town in the daytime . In summary this town never sleeps during summer.

Brunch party time: (14:00- 18:00)

Yes you heard it right, day starts after 14:00. Start your day at legendary hip & happening Scorpios or Nammos to get you started & put you in a cheerful mood for rest of the day. Scorpios in particular on Sneaky sunday afternoon can be epicenter of summer hedonism.

Bouncy trendy music, glam crowd from all over the world & by default beautiful beach . As for food, well, it caters to all global fusion cuisines.

Some snapshots from Nammos :

Alemagou Beach club blends so well with the jagged Ftelia beach barren landscape.(amazing techo-trance genre). Can be tricky to reach this place, but worth all the troubles .

Plenty of options for bar hopping all in a square mile along Little Venice , & in town like cozy lil Argos, gay bar – Jackie O, Scarpa bar, 80’s retro Cinderalla & so on.

Little venice: Being spoilt for choices, bar hopping has a new meaning here.

Cavo Paradiso located on a cliff hanging overlooking a beach is the mega club of the island with superstar big room high profile DJ’s line-up with likes of Axwell, Guetta etc all thro summer. Entry charges range from 30-50Eur. It was my fav Steve Angelo night when i visited,so was worth it.

VOID: is another interesting option with hardcore EDM/techno-trance DJ lineups.

Within Myknonos town, first choice always legendary ,place for movers & shakers , a place to be seen ,ASTRA . What looks like a chic boutique from outside in daytime, turns into a happening club in town in daytime?Looks can be deceptive.

When you are at ASTRA ,you just cant ignore the boisterous street party at next door QUEEN’s. Dance floor & lounge for this club is the narrow bylane or open courtyard for public

To join the party.Perfect place for people watching .

Skandinavian bar : Requires a special mention. This place is any time option be it 5am or 5pm, is always full & great place for socializing with its open air courtyard, disco floor & bar ,all in one cramped up complex.

Before I visited, I thought it was a hype to compare Mykonos with Ibiza , but Mykonos in the end ,blew me away with the sheer number of options it provides to chill out.

Pathos sunset lounge: Perfect place to chill out with stunning sunset views.

Farout Beach club:

Is a perfect student partyzone . You can bump into camping students from all over the world. Accomodations can range from camping(with less than 20e) to apartments.(around 100 Eur)
