Mykonos
Aegean party destination
Mykonos is a Greek island in the Aegean Sea, part of the Cyclades archipelago.
Known for its whitewashed buildings, windmills, and beaches, it became a major tourist destination in the late twentieth century, particularly popular with gay travelers.
We spent a week in Mykonos.
The name also refers to the island's main town.
