  • Citorah PickClub · Mykonos

    Cavo Paradiso

    Citorah says If your group’s ideal day is a sunbed at Scorpios, dinner at Nammos and Cavo Paradiso, on a cliff above Paradise Beach, until it closes at 07:00, Mykonos is the right island.

  • Citorah PickRooftop bar · Athens

Beach clubs

  • Citorah PickBeach club · Santorini

    Wet Stories

    Citorah says Perivolos has beach bars: Wet Stories hosts DJ parties, and Seaside, between Perivolos and Agios Georgios, calls itself a beach and sunset lounge bar.

    The catch Neither site had been updated for 2026 when we checked in October, so check they’re open before you plan around them.

    Scorpios

    Citorah says Scorpios is on Paraga beach. Resident DJs play its Listening Sessions through the day, and at weekends the line-up builds with invited headliners.

  • Citorah PickBeach club · Mykonos

    SantAnna

    Best for a pool day

  • Citorah PickBeach club · Mykonos

    Nammos

    Citorah says Nammos is on Psarou beach: a restaurant open from 1pm until 2am, a beach open from 11am to 7pm, and four day-use cabanas. Despite the restaurant reputation, it sells itself as a party too: “Parties start every day with the pop of champagne corks,” its site says.

    The catch We couldn’t find Nammos’s prices published online. Ask for the menu, and the price of anything you order by the bottle, before you order.

  • Citorah PickBeach club · Mykonos

    Alemagou

    Citorah says Alemagou is on Ftelia beach, on the north side of the island, a different pace from the south-coast party strip. Book a cabana or lounge beds for the day, and take a long lunch.
