Kalafatis Beach is one of the longest sandy beaches on Mykonos. The beach is protected from wind by a line of pine trees directly behind the sand, but the exposed bay is really popular with wind surfers. Windsurf rental is available if you fancy a go.

There are some good-value restaurants and sun loungers to rent at both ends of the beach. The large central strip is just perfect for those who prefer a quiet spot for their own towel and umbrella.

Kalafatis Beach is easy to reach by car or bike. Park on the road behind the beach or in one of the car parks.
