All About Mykonos Beaches

All About Ftelia Beach

Ftelia Beach is the largest of all the undeveloped beaches in Mykonos. This wild, north beach is one of the favorites of wind surfers. Even as a non-participant you can spend some time watching the spectacle of wind surfers flying across the sea. When the rare south wind blows, this is the beach to come to.

There are no sun beds or umbrellas, but you can find plenty of privacy and space to lay your towel on this soft, sandy, windswept beach. Because of the wind, this is also a fairly good place to do some beachcombing; you never know what you might find. This is a perfect beach to bring your dog to run or a swim in the sea.

You can take a pause in your day to have a meal or drink at one of the tavernas on either end of the beach. There are private houses and villas, a few small hotels, apartments and rooms for rent overlooking the beach.

A small archeological site is located on a rocky area in the middle of the beach that is somewhat protected.

Ftelia Beach can be reached by bus originating at the intersection near the old port behind the museum (getting off the bus on the main road and walking about ten minutes to the beach), rental car – motorbike or taxi. There is plenty of undeveloped parking on and around the beach.
