SHAKE WHATCHYA MOMMA GAVE YA!!!

The Pirate Party Island - AARRGGHHH MATEY!!!

SuperP beach party begins to get cranking around 5
Spent 5 days in Mykonos during the beginning period in May when Greek university students flock to the island. There were a fair number of tourists there as well -- more than I expected actually.

I think I will revisit the island at some point. It's fun, and the Hora is incredible with is "pirate-confusing" labrynthine streets. The island itself is not very aesthetic since it's mostly rocky landscape, and I was a little disappointed with the beaches that were pebbles instead of soft sand.

The nightlife is probably even better during the summer peak. There are lots places for quiet, lounge, club, bar, straight, gay, couples, families, and the like.

The challenge of visiting Mykonos is to enjoy it without being bankrupted. There are places where good meals and lodging can be had without being duped. I think my friend and I found some good places worthy of mention here, so I hope these help.

Cheers!

Pros:"Sunny weather, beach parties, relaxing and unique."
Cons:"Exorbitant prices at some places and the prevailing Greek manner of "See and be Seen""
In A Nutshell:"We ended up changing our ferry departure so we could spend another full day there."
