Mykonos or santorini in early september... which is better?

Question

Im in my late 20s going with my girlfriends... we love the beach and love a little nightlife... also, i know there are sections of each island as well... what towns would you suggest for each island? thanks

Answer 1

mykonos has more nightlife, more single people, and more beaches. be sure to check the clubs before you go since mid-september is when they usually start closing down for the winter( i know 'space' closes this year on sept 12, and 'cavo paradiso' closes on sept 6). the good thing though is the prices for hotels drop dramatically in september. i prefer to stay at petasos beach hotel in plati yialos. as far as best beaches in mykonos; paradise, super paradise, plati yialos are my favs.

Answer 2

Girls altogether - I would say Mykonos - make sure you have plenty of money though ... going to the most expensive island which is frequented by the Greek rich and famous ... needs designer clothes AND money! Also Paradise beach needs a 'good body' .... sad but true!

Answer 3

Mykonos and Santorini are both great for nightlife. Mykonos is also a destination for g*y people from all over the world. I guess you'll find more beaches in Mykonos than in Santorini since a part of the island is a cliff. But on the other side the best sunset i've ever seen in my life is definitely in Santorini. My favourite would be in Imerovigli, between Fira and Oia. Amazing!!! Each of the two islands has it's own character.

Suggestion: Visit them both!!! You won't regret it!!!

Answer 4

If its only just you and your girlfriends and want to have fun, i will say Mykonos - awesome nightlife, music, bars, night scenes. Santorini is more of a 'honeymoon' island.

Answer 5

Santorini. Stay in Fira, the capital: that's where all the nightlife is. In the mornings take the bus to the beaches of Perissa and Perivolos.
