The van eases out of Mykonos Town as white-washed houses recede and the Aegean opens like a bright promise. Salt-scrubbed headlands and low stone walls slide past as a local guide outlines options — a quiet beach, a clifftop lighthouse, a village square where bread still bakes by hand. The tone is flexible: this is Mykonos on your terms.
