Location

Enjoy the local area

The Avaton is poised high above Elia beach, the island’s longest beach situated on the south coastline a mere 10 km from Mykonos town. Renowned for its aquamarine waters, fine sand and activities, Elia is a destination in its own right, a place where ancient myths and modern legends come alive under the Aegean sun and starry nights. A complimentary shuttle service is available to run guests of the Myconian Collection to and from town almost every hour.

Ferries to the famous ruins of Delos, one of the most important mythological and archaeological sites in the Mediterranean, depart from the town harbour. Alternatively, you may choose to explore Delos, the neighbouring desert island of Rhenia or the hidden coves of Mykonos by private launch.

Mykonos weather is famously consistent from May to October, with temperatures in July and August reaching 32-35 degrees Celsius (89-95 Fahrenheit), cooled by the occasional northerly meltemi wind.

Mykonos is easily accessible. International airlines operate through Athens, with direct connections out of London and seasonal direct flights out of numerous European hubs. Athens-Mykonos takes a mere 35 minutes.

Daily connections operate to and from the Athenian mainland ports of Piraeus and Rafina, as well as the Cycladic islands of Tinos, Syros, Paros, Naxos, Ios, Santorini, Andros and Amorgos. There are frequent connections to other gems of the Aegean such as Crete (Heraklion) and Samos, and the Dodecanese islands of Astypalaia, Kos and Rhodes.
