Kalafatis Beach
Καλαφάτης
A long sandy beach on the southeast coast and a water sports center, home to windsurfing, kitesurfing, and diving lessons.
Kalafatis Beach lies on the southeast of the island, about 12 km from Mykonos Town. It is a wide, long sandy beach with highly transparent water, and there are ruins of a Mycenaean-era settlement nearby. This is the island's water sports center, with windsurfing, kitesurfing, SUP, and diving schools. The steady wind of the summer meltemi makes it the first choice for surfers. Hotels and restaurants line one side of the beach, and loungers can be rented easily. Overall it is quieter than the party beaches on the south coast. You can take a bus from the Old Port bus stop in town (about one per hour in summer), passing through the inland village of Ano Mera.
