We visited Mykonos in the month of February so most of the things were closed for us but there were still a couple things open! I believe most places stay open between April-October so because you are going after we aren't totally sure what will all still be available but probably more than what was available to us!
Hi there, im flying to mykonos on the 10th of March. Will all the shops be closed? and is it hard to find food and transportation? Appreciate your feedback. Thank you in advance.
That’s so exciting!! More will be open for you then when we were there I assume! When we were talking to some locals they said most things start reopening in April but there will still be some things to go see 😁 I would check in advance with companies if you are wanting to rent a scooter or car but there still are some buses operating, just less frequently and not to ever destination! Hope this helps 🥰
@@robynandgraham thank you for the heads up! hoping for a good trip since this is my first time. pretty worried if evrrything is closed tho, esp at night
@@ikramshahrizan4665 Don't worry there will be some stuff open! You just might not have a ton of options 😁 Mykonos is beautiful and we hope you have the best time!
The island was absolutely beautiful! Although if you go during the summer season you're going to be fighting through a crowd of tourists all the time 😂
Not so much! Definitely the winter is a lot quieter on the islands than what you would see in the summer! I'm sure there may be some clubs/parties open but we didn't hit up any while we were there so we aren't totally sure!!
Hey! Not 100% sure because we were there in February 😁 but when we were there (which was the low season) most weren’t running at all and if they were it was once or twice a day to a select few locations
There should be more open to you then there was to us! When we were talking to the locals it seems like most shops and restaurants begin reopening in April 😁 By the time we left Greece (beginning of March) the weather was already starting to warm up so it should at least be comfortable weather by the time you get there!!
Honestly it depends what kind of weather you are going for! Mykonos is a highly tourist based island so a lot is closed in the winter time. We went in February and most shops, restaurants, hotels, etc were closed so I'm not sure we got the full experience! Definitely less tourists around which was a plus! I would say most things are open between April - October but if you want to go in a winter month than maybe March?? That might have some things starting to open?? Not totally sure tho! Hope this helps 😁
As you experienced by self's the life in winter time in Greek islands isn't that glamorous and easy as the majority of people think. Many shops and services are closed. Weather is usually not really cold but pretty windy and this affect the transfers among to islands. And just to remind Mykonos is one of the richer and expensive islands of Mediterranean and maybe in Europe. Imagine the life in other small greek islands with elderly people, even less population and shops, poorer facilities. Also in many of them there's serious problem with hospitals and medical personnel. Idyllic places for vacation, but the reality for residents are far different.
Yes, we definitely did not expect the Greek islands to be like this in the winter! Thanks for your insight on the situation 😁 we still met some lovely people and had a great time on the islands but it was definitely very different then what we expected
We mentioned the name of the restaurant in our video 😁 It was called Point. And although we don't often say the name of where we are staying, we do show the sign in our video! We stayed at Hotel Lefteris. Hope this helps 👏🏼
Looked like a pretty big place for all those amenities to be closed, even to the locals. Also was amazed at all the whitewashed buildings! Someone must have a busy business. Love this. 🙂
Athens its for all year not only 2 months for summer !!! Unfortunately last 2 years rents goes too high and our life destroyed... even a tiny house is so expensive 🤣🤣🤣🤣.... i didn't expected that athens was cheap and best in europe... now is more expensive than myconos😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Your videos are so genuine and authentic 🔥 Thanks for making this. Looking forward to new videos
Thank you so much!! 🥰 we appreciate your kind words
What month did you guys visit? We are planning to visit in Novemeber end. You think most places would be closed at that time as well?

the brand LACTA or ION is the best chocolate brand in Greece
We 100% agree with you!! 😁😁
This island is on my bucketlist since I have watched Bourne Identity movie(last scene) back in 2017.
The island was absolutely beautiful! Although if you go during the summer season you're going to be fighting through a crowd of tourists all the time 😂
wondering if any clubs/parties open during february
Not so much! Definitely the winter is a lot quieter on the islands than what you would see in the summer! I'm sure there may be some clubs/parties open but we didn't hit up any while we were there so we aren't totally sure!!
@@robynandgraham alright.. thank you for the response.. cheers!
Hey there. great vid! Just a question, the bus service working in November?
Hey! Not 100% sure because we were there in February 😁 but when we were there (which was the low season) most weren’t running at all and if they were it was once or twice a day to a select few locations
@@robynandgraham thanks Robyn and Nerissa. Heading there early Nov. Hoping there still is!

@@dacfit We are so glad you enjoyed it and found it useful 😁

Mykonos looks incredible, and that sunset was breathtaking! I love how they just had little hashtags all over the place #happiness
Lots of cute places to take photos for sure!! 🥰
very nice video. it is good to listen to you. you persuaded me to go to Mykonos next year: D I must see them: D
I’m glad we are persuading you!! 😁👏🏼 the islands are beautiful
Which month in winter is great to visit Mykonos?

What is the name of the hotel ?
The hotel that we stayed at is called Lefteris Hotel & Apartments 😁
Which month was this recorded in?
It was recorded in February!
Point has changed its name to Luza traditional Greek taverna. I'm there now having one of the menus. It's certainly very cheap by Mykonos standards
Oh good to know!! Thanks for sharing 🤗
well, really nice... but u could put the name of the hotel and the restaurant, to help us!!

We were surprised how many things were closed!!
There are a lot more places open (especially restaurants) but you won't find them in the Little Venice area.
ask the locals were they go to eat
We had asked the front desk person for some advice and he was very helpful!
Στου σκατοπουλου τρωνε......
Much better in athens thàn myconos...😊😊
We absolutely LOVED our time in Athens!
Athens its for all year not only 2 months for summer !!! Unfortunately last 2 years rents goes too high and our life destroyed... even a tiny house is so expensive 🤣🤣🤣🤣.... i didn't expected that athens was cheap and best in europe... now is more expensive than myconos😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
What month was this filmed?
It was filmed in February of 2022!
