Fokos Beach
Φωκός
A remote, quiet bay on the northeast coast with only one small tavern. It is one of the best places on the island to experience an almost deserted beach.
Fokos Beach lies in the northeast of Mykonos. To reach it, you drive past Ano Mera and then travel about 3 km along a dirt road. Its isolation has kept it wild and peaceful. The bay consists of coarse sand and pebbles, surrounded by low barren hills and stone walls, and has only one summer-only taverna, Fokos Taverna, which serves seafood and Greek home cooking. The small bay of Mersini is within walking distance and is even more secluded. The beach faces north, so waves can be large on windy days, and it is best visited on calm days. There is no bus service, so you will need to drive or ride a four-wheel-drive vehicle. The roads are rough, so visit during the day and bring drinking water and shade.
