Platis Gialos Beach, Mykonos

The chora...


Platis Gialos (pronounced Yialos) is in distance, 4km from Mykonos town (chora). There was a day we headed for Super Paradise beach, but we have to get to this beach first since all boats to the other beaches only depart from here. From the chora we took a bus to this beautiful beach, taking only 10 minutes. Here we bought the onward tickets to Super Paradise! Here are some pictures taken at Platis Gialos!

From the hotel, it was just a short stroll to the chora bus stop... *in this picture, Mr Cafe Elysium

And after 10 minute in the air-conditioned bus, we reached the Platis Gialos...

There were various luxurious hotels and mini markets here, only a few steps from the beach... But most holidaymakers still prefer staying in the chora area...

Personally, Platis Gialos is the third best beach to my liking in Mykonos!
