Mykonos Windmills

he Mykonos windmills are a must-see for anyone visiting the island. Located on a small hill close to Mykonos Town, they are one of the most photographed spots in the Cyclades. Built hundreds of years ago, the windmills were once used to grind wheat and played an important role in the island’s economy. Today, they are no longer working, but they stand as a symbol of Mykonos’s history. From the hill, visitors can enjoy beautiful views of the town, the sea, and even nearby islands on a clear day. It’s a great place to watch the sunset or simply relax and take in the peaceful atmosphere. The windmills are easy to reach by walking from Little Venice or the town center, making them a perfect stop during your day of sightseeing. They offer a mix of history, beauty, and photo opportunities that make every visit special.
