Paralia Kalafati
Kalafatis Beach & The Former Cycladic Fisherman Village.
Kalafatis Beach is a stunning, wide bay famous for its crystal-clear turquoise waters and its status as a "Blue Flag" destination. While popular for windsurfing and diving, the highlight is the former Cycladic fisherman village tucked away at the edge of the shore. Here, you will see the traditional "Syrmata"—stone boat houses built directly into the rock—offering a rare and authentic look at the island's maritime history before it became a global destination. It is the perfect spot for those seeking a peaceful atmosphere and a connection to the real Mykonos.

It is the best place on the island to find local specialties like Kopanisti cheese and Louza. While it is a major attraction, it remains the best spot to sit for an Ouzo and meze while taking in the classic Cycladic village atmosphere.

Agrari Beach
Agrari is one of the most peaceful beaches on the southern coast. While neighboring beaches are developed with large clubs, Agrari remains more simple and authentic. It features deep blue, crystal-clear water and a long stretch of coarse sand. It is a favorite for those who want to avoid the loud music of the more famous spots and enjoy a quiet swim in a beautiful, natural setting.
You can enjoy a coffee or a fresh juice at the traditional beachfront taverna while taking in the views of the neighboring island of Naxos. It is also an ideal spot for a quick, refreshing swim in some of the clearest and deepest waters found on the island’s south side.
