Although twice
as far away from the U.K. as Ibiza, this Greek
island attracts a lot of British guys to the
very cosmopolitan-and-gay Mykonos Town - which
has a nice little gay scene, (YES, little!). Do
not come here expecting loads of in-your-face
gay venues with raunchy dark-rooms, saunas and
the like! |

MYKONOS TOWN is quite up-market, and for
a small island gay holiday place in the
sun, it has a plethora of small but
upmarket shops and boutiques of the
international designer-label type ...and
it accordingly attracts a lot of gay
couples and groups who come here
specifically because it offers something
quite different to the "sleaze"
identified in some minds with the YUMBO
CENTRE in Gran Canaria! Be warned that
if you are not too agile, please be
aware that it is hilly in TOWN; this can
be mitigated to a degree by requesting a
central location but you are likely
still to encounter some steps and steep
inclines and wheelchair accessibility
can be a problem here. Also, the beaches
are out-of-town...and the gayest one, at
SUPER PARADISE requires quite a
commitment to the little expedition
involved in getting to it! |

Many would-be holidaymakers to MYKONOS
(particularly those of you looking for a
bargain-priced holiday) are a little put-off by
the limited number of quite expensive direct
flights that operate out of Britain by the
straight holiday companies that have more
recently over-run the island with their straight
package-holidays so that, even on the one-time
very gay Super Paradise beach, the straights
have invaded big-time thereby squeezing the gay
part to one end of the beach...giving us less
freedom and privacy to be our uninhibited
selves! But, don't worry, there's still enough
room for YOU!
... but there are still plenty of opportunities
to ‘get yer kit off’ !!! |

The biggest problem of all tends to be centred
around actually booking up your holiday here!
Most of the accommodation is fully-booked for
high season (July-mid-September) for many months
in advance; this is a popular but small
international gay holiday place with
insufficient direct flights and little price
competition between the few flight operators so
the problem is compounded not just by high
prices but limited availability so the sensible
thing to do is to book well ahead...and avoid
the high August prices if you can... so for
those of you who still insist on spontaneous
urges about holidaying in MYKONOS ...be warned,
we'll tell you off...but we will do our best to
sort you out! Your holiday here could be
combined with a few days spent in ATHENS,
en-route, where we have centrally-located hotels
across the quality and price range...or
island-hopping to other Cyclades islands, such
as SANTORINI and TINOS close-by. |
