Best Beach Clubs in Mykonos (2026)
A ranked concierge guide to the ten Mykonos beach clubs that define the island's daybed-to-party scene, from Nammos on Psarou to Tropicana on Paradise Beach, with daybeds arranged on request.
Why we wrote this guide
Mykonos beach clubs are their own genre. The template was set on Psarou Beach, where Nammos turned a stretch of sand into champagne, cabanas, and table-dancing, and the rest of the island followed. What you get here is a specific rhythm: a daybed and a long lunch that tips, somewhere around late afternoon, into a full party without anyone leaving their seat. The scene spreads across the island's best beaches, Psarou and Paraga on the south side, Panormos and Ftelia to the quieter north, Super Paradise and Paradise on the party coast. Some clubs run on saltwater pools and DJ residencies; others trade the noise for reed roofing and a sunset ritual. Prices climb with the sightline, and where you sit is most of the decision. The season is short and summer-only, roughly May through October, and the marquee days book out fast. These clubs route through the MyRSVP concierge, so tell us the day, the group, and the budget and we arrange the daybed. Below is our ranked guide to the ten that matter. Last updated July 2026.
The ranked guide
1. Alemagou (Ftelia Beach)
Alemagou runs along the windswept northern shore of Ftelia Beach, a Cycladic beach club of whitewashed stone walls and natural reed roofing that looks rooted in the landscape rather than dropped onto it. Open since 2010, it trades the manufactured intensity of the island's mega-clubs for something calmer, unhurried daytime lounging that lifts into sunset energy as the light fades. Resident DJs work the daytime, and rotating guests like Blond:ish bring eclectic sets that pull from trip-hop, Latin, and African influences; Mondays are when the party energy peaks. The layout stacks naturally, with sunbeds and loungers closest to the shoreline and intimate seating areas spread across the rest. It is the north-coast pick for anyone who wants the scene without the crush. See Alemagou.
Best for: a calmer, design-led beach day on the quieter north shore.
2. Nammos (Psarou Beach)
Nammos has held Psarou Beach, about four kilometers from town, since the early 2000s, and it is still one of the anchors of the Mykonos party scene. The setup divides cleanly, restaurant and retail shopping on one side, beach and cabanas running toward the Aegean on the other. VIP tables come in two tiers, either beachfront with an open line to the sea or set closer to the stage and the action, and the day moves in stages: lunch is Mediterranean seafood and champagne, afternoons blur into table dancing, and evenings sharpen with DJ sets that push past midnight on weekends. The crowd runs celebrity-dense on Fridays and Saturdays, and the tables sit tight enough that you will know your neighbors before the afternoon is out. This is the one the rest of the island measures itself against. See Nammos.
Best for: the definitive Psarou champagne-and-cabana scene.
3. Santanna (Paraga Beach)
Santanna is built around the largest saltwater pool in the Mediterranean, 22,600 square feet of it, spread across Paraga Beach in Cycladic architecture and contemporary lines. Since opening in 2017 it has run residencies and appearances from international names like Black Coffee and Tyga, pulling jet-setters through its May-to-October season. The layout divides between poolside cabanas for smaller groups and the Royal Island, a floating VIP enclave for up to 20 guests with an underground suite that looks out underwater. Daytime leans toward organic dining, spa services, and lounging; evenings turn up with DJ sets on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays that run to midnight and past it. It is the island's biggest pool party, and it plays to that scale. See Santanna.
Best for: a full-scale pool party with a group.
4. Cavo Tagoo (Tagoo)
Cavo Tagoo is defined by its infinity pool, which cascades across a cliff-edge property with the Aegean open below and nothing in the way of the view. The look is pure Cycladic minimalism, whitewashed surfaces, clean lines, and terraced pool decks that step down toward the sea. Cabanas and loungers tier from poolside to premium cliff-edge positions, the best sightlines carrying the highest spend. The property sits only steps from Mykonos Town, yet stays architecturally isolated enough that the atmosphere feels removed, almost private. The club runs May through October, opening at 10 a.m. for daytime lounging and shifting into evening sessions as resident and guest DJs spin house and chill-out. It is the choice when you want the view and the polish over the party. See Cavo Tagoo.
Best for: cliff-edge infinity-pool lounging close to town.
5. Scorpios (Paraga)
Scorpios occupies a cliffside perch above Paraga Beach, and its whole rhythm bends toward the water. The daily sunset ritual is the signature, a ceremony that pulls a crowd by 5 p.m. and rolls on into night parties that run past 2 a.m. Since opening in 2015 it has grown into far more than a beach club. The design leans bohemian but functional, driftwood structures, woven textiles, and open-air terracing that keep sightlines to the Aegean from almost every seat. Programming spans the full day, from morning yoga and organic dining to progressive dance music after dark, and the crowd skews toward creatives and seasoned nightlife travelers. The bookings have been serious, with electronic acts on the calendar. Come for the sunset, stay for the set. See Scorpios.
Best for: the sunset ritual and a bohemian, music-led crowd.
6. Kalua (Paraga Beach)
Kalua stretches along the golden sand of Paraga Beach, a beach club whose protected cove keeps the water calm enough for a long lunch and loud enough for a party by late afternoon. It runs daily from May through October, opening late morning and building through the day around a beachfront dance floor with direct sea views. Top DJs work a house-and-pop mix that tracks the light, easy while the sun is high and full-throttle once it tilts west. Kalua first made its name in the early 2000s as a local favorite and has since become one of the island's highest-energy beach destinations. VIP tables are typically plush loungers set near the dance floor or on the oceanfront. It is Paraga at full volume. See Kalua.
Best for: a high-energy dance-floor-on-the-sand afternoon.
7. Zuma Pool (Mykonos Old Port)
Zuma Pool sets a 5,000-square-meter pool deck against the Aegean, its infinity pool spilling toward unobstructed sea views. It sits next to the Cavo Tagoo Hotel near Mykonos Old Port, and it works both ends of the day, from slow sunbed lounging to a sunset-into-night party. VIP placement splits between super king-size sunbeds, 200 by 200 centimeters, and high-top dining spots, both angled for a direct line to the water and the sunset. The design threads contemporary luxury through Aegean informality, and the venue opened seasonally in 2022, running May through October, daily from 11 a.m., with resident DJs taking over as the afternoon tips into evening and spinning past midnight. The food program carries the Zuma name. See Zuma Pool.
Best for: a design-forward pool party with Zuma's kitchen behind it.
8. Principote (Panormos Beach)
Principote sits on Panormos, a long sweep of golden sand on the quieter north coast of Mykonos, a short drive from Mykonos Town. It is a full beach club rather than a simple beach bar: rows of hand-knit umbrellas and cushioned sunbeds run down to calm, shallow water, with larger daybeds set aside in a VIP section for groups who want more room and more shade. Lunch is the anchor of the day. The kitchen turns out Mediterranean cooking built on organic Greek produce, fresh fish, and prime meat, with bread baked in a wood oven on site and a sushi bar that crosses Japanese technique with Aegean catch. Service runs from mid-morning loungers through a long, wine-soaked afternoon. It is the polished north-coast day-to-night option. See Principote.
Best for: a long, food-led afternoon on calm north-coast water.
9. Super Paradise Beach Club (Super Paradise Beach)
Super Paradise is the beach that gave Mykonos its party reputation, a deep cove on the island's south coast framed by granite rocks and unusually clear water. The beach club spreads across the sand and up onto the terraces, built from stone and wood that sit easily against the natural landscape, with sunbeds and shaded loungers running down to the shoreline. By day it works as a straightforward beach club, rows of beds with full waiter service, a hookah lounge, and a kitchen and bar turning out Mediterranean plates, wines, and cocktails through the afternoon. Swimmers hold the water's edge while the music builds behind them, and from late afternoon the mood changes and the tables clear for the party. This is the cove where the island's reputation started. See Super Paradise Beach Club.
Best for: swimming and sunbeds that turn into an open-air party.
10. Tropicana (Paradise Beach)
Tropicana is the beach club on Paradise Beach, the strip on the south coast of Mykonos that has been the island's party beach since the 1980s. It is the original of the format, the bar-on-the-sand that turns into a dance floor, and most of what came after on Mykonos borrowed the template from here. Days start as a normal beach club, rows of sunbeds and umbrellas on the sand, a full bar, food service, and swimming off a wide, shallow beach. It is come-as-you-are rather than exclusive, with free entry and sunbeds charged separately, which keeps the crowd young, international, and loose compared with the island's pricier clubs. If you want the raw, unpolished version of the Mykonos beach party, this is where it lives. See Tropicana.
Best for: the come-as-you-are original party beach.
How MyRSVP helps
We work these beaches all summer and we know how each one plays, which club suits a group, which daybed catches the sunset, and which days are worth the spend. Tell us the day, the size of the group, and the budget, and we arrange the daybed, cabana, or VIP table and time your arrival so you land in the right room.
