Staying Near Paradise Beach
Paradise Beach is located 6 km south of Mykonos Town. It’s a young and busy party beach with the loud music of big name international guest DJs at Tropicana and Paradise Beach Clubs spilling out onto the sand. Parties begin mid afternoon and last until sunrise. Historically more of a gay beach, this is no longer so. There’s a handful of dining options on the beach including pizza, Indian food, and a juice bar; Paradise also has a campground, laundry facilities, and a mini market. It’s an easy bus ride to and from Mykonos Town, plus it’s on the Mykonos water taxi route that shuttles visitors to other popular beaches including Ornos, Platis Gialos, Paraga, Super Paradise, Argari and Elia Beaches. Paradise is probably not the best choice for families.
