The boat slips away from Parikia as the island shrinks into a sunlit wedge of white houses and blue shutters. Salt and diesel mix in the air, the Aegean stretching flat and decisive; gulls wheel and the captain scans for sheltered coves. Over the course of the day the hull threads along Mykonos’ southern rim—Psarou and Paradise hum with beach bars, while quieter bays hold only the sound of water against rock.
