Getting There
-
Bus
From Mykonos Town, head to the bus station located near Fabrika Square. Look for the bus heading to Platis Gialos Beach. The bus runs frequently, approximately every 30 minutes. After about 10 minutes, get off at Platis Gialos Beach. Once you arrive, follow the beach promenade towards the right (facing the sea) for about 15-20 minutes until you reach Glyfadi Beach. The path is well-marked and offers great views of the coastline.
-
Walking
If you're staying in or near Platis Gialos, Glyfadi Beach is a pleasant walk away. From Platis Gialos Beach, walk along the shoreline heading towards the right. Keep walking for about 15-20 minutes. You will pass a few small beach bars and beautiful views along the way. Glyfadi Beach will be on your right side, just before the rocky area.
-
Taxi
If you prefer a quicker option, you can take a taxi from Mykonos Town directly to Glyfadi Beach. Simply tell the driver 'Glyfadi Beach,' and they will take you there. The journey takes about 10-15 minutes depending on traffic. Make sure to confirm the fare before you get in, as taxis in Mykonos do not have meters.
-
Boat
Another unique approach is to take a boat taxi from Mykonos Town to Glyfadi Beach. Head to the old port of Mykonos and look for boat taxis that offer routes around the coastline. You can inquire about a direct trip to Glyfadi Beach. The boat ride provides a scenic view of the island and takes about 15 minutes.
