The best way to fill some time is shopping. Whether you visit New York, Vienna, London or Mykonos, the best part of enjoying the culture is checking out the stores and especially the discounts. If you happen to come to Mykonos in August you’ll be pleasantly surprised to realize that you can go back home with quite a big new wardrobe for the fraction of the price you’d pay otherwise. As the discounts season draws to an end you can even find merchandise discounted up to 70%!
Opening hours
Contrary to what you probably know from big capitals where the stores close their doors at 5 or 6 pm, in Mykonos you’ll find the stores open until late at night (around 10 pm) and even until morning (1 or 2 am) during July and August. This means you don’t have to sacrifice beach time. Plus, the “afternoon siesta” is pretty much not heard of in Mykonos so don’t worry about finding the stores closed in the afternoon either.

When visiting Mykonos, make sure to experience the local cuisine. While the restaurants within resorts or hotels are most often a good choice, sometimes it’s a good idea to go “off the beaten path” and try some of the restaurants which are favored by the locals. Here are some ideas for you.
Nammos
This is currently the hottest beach restaurant in Mykonos. At the edge of popular Psarou Beach you’ll find a dirty road and at its end, there’s Nammos. There’s a formal dining area, a bar and a beach club so, in short, there’s a place for everyone.

The party atmosphere is at its best on Paradise Beach but don’t be surprised to see nudity, as well. Dubbed as one of the best beaches on the island of Mykonos, Paradise Beach has been popular among tourists since the days of the hippies.
Location and how to get to Paradise Beach
Paradise Beach stands in the southern part of Mykonos, between Paranga Beach and Super Paradise Beach.
The beach is easy accessible by foot from Platis Yialos. Also there is a bus service that runs to the beach from the city of Mykonos and you can also take a taxi-boat.

Greece has many islands with known nude beaches. While the most secluded beaches may be a nude beach at times, there are a lot of beaches that have been clothes-optional for quite a while, making them the most popular in Greece.
It may be the virgin beauty of the Greek islands or the more liberal European attitude towards nude bathing, but something definitely makes tourists try nude-bathing for the first time ever while visiting Greece.
