Elia beach Mykonos

ELIA is one of the largest among the chain of beaches along the south coast of Mykonos.
Elia has very soft sand and is a big favourite of the gay crowd, hence plenty of nudity along the shoreline, though it is mainly confined to the western end of the beach.
There is a bus service to Elia beach and it is one of the ports of call for the daily caiques that set out from Platys Yialos and Ornos to hop along the south coast beaches.
Elia beach is about 10km from Mykonos Town and, although very popular, it remains relatively quiet with none of the beach party mentality of Paradise and Super Paradise.
There are umbrellas and sunbeds to rent on Elia beach, changing rooms and showers, as well as plenty of places to eat and drink. Elia has several shops and a mini market behind the beach.
Watersports are also on offer at Elia beach with the usual jet skis, banana rides, parasailing and so on.
