Mykonos after dark since 1969

Paradise Beach Club dates itself to 1969 and calls that year the beginning of a culture. Today it still runs from April to October, with parties every afternoon from 16:00 and every night from 22:00, and the municipality describes the beach as the place where the party goes on from midday into the early hours.

In Chora, Skandinavian has been family-owned since 1978. By its own account it began as a small bar with good friends and grew into a courtyard with two bars downstairs and a dance floor upstairs, playing the summer's hits from 20:00 to 05:30 on Agios Ioannis Barkia square.

Cavo Paradiso opened in 1993 on the hill above the left end of Paradise beach, a date it gives on its own website and that also appears in lists of the world's superclubs. It is the late shift of the south coast: 23:00 to 07:00, headliners around 01:45, strictly 18+.

Back in Chora, some of the sea-front houses of Little Venice, with their wooden balconies over the water, are now bars and cafés, and the municipality sends visitors there for the first drink of the night. Further in, Matogianni fills with bars and lounge-cafés, and below Paraportiani church Jackie O' Town Bar stages drag shows every night.

Of the venues still running, three give their own starting year: Paradise Beach Club 1969, Skandinavian 1978 and Cavo Paradiso 1993. Here they are with the hours each one publishes, next to the two Chora addresses that complete the picture.

Today the club behind our nights is WE ❤ MYK Club, an open-air room on Florou Zouganeli with views over the old harbour, mainstream sets with live vocalists, and a themed week that in 2026 began with a Grand Opening on 5 June, every night of it listed with doors at midnight.
