Mykonos, a Greek island in the Aegean, is a delightful spot featuring a craggy shoreline with sandy beaches, Venetian windmills, and a labyrinth of small white-washed buildings attracts wealthy Athenians and visitors from the world over.
It’s a well-heeled spot that’s been firmly part of the jet-set circuit for decades. It’s also very gay and lesbian popular primarily among Europeans but also for Americans. There are gay and gay-popluar accommodations (click here and check out Elysium which is gay), gay bars and clubs and gay-popular restaurants.
If you like parties, consider visiting during the XLSior Gay Festival, scheduled for August 24-28, 2011. Events include parties organized by Europe’s key gay promoters, beach parties and more.
Another reason to visit Greece: This country suffered greatly during the recent recession and needs some economic stimulus! So go spend some pink dollars. Have fun. Do good.
