The 10 Best Beach Clubs in Mykonos for 2027

Direct Answer

Mykonos invented the modern Mediterranean beach-club party, and the best of them is Scorpios on Paraga beach, a boho-luxe ritual spot where a daybed minimum spend runs roughly €200–€500+ and the daily sunset DJ set draws a global crowd to its driftwood deck. The smartest value is Super Paradise Beach Club, where a sunbed pair with umbrella runs around €40–€80 and the party energy rivals venues charging triple.

This list is for travelers who want real Mykonos beach clubs with real daybed pricing, real beaches, and a clear read on each scene. Prices reflect 2026 high-season (July–August) rates, when Mykonos is among the most expensive destinations in the Mediterranean. Every venue is real and ranked on setting, music, food, service, and value.

1. Scorpios Mykonos 🏆 BEST OVERALL

On the rocky peninsula between Paraga and Agia Anna, Scorpios is the defining Mykonos beach club — a sprawling, ritualistic space of driftwood, Berber textiles, and a sunken stage where the daily sunset set has become a near-spiritual gathering.

Daybeds and loungers carry minimum spends of roughly €200–€500+ depending on location and date, with front-row beds and the prized stage-side spots higher in peak August. The Mediterranean-meets-Middle-Eastern menu is excellent, and the music — curated by a respected resident team — leans into organic, melodic, downtempo-to-house textures.

Booking is essential.

It ranks #1 because nothing else on the island matches its design, its curated sunset ritual, and the quality across food, music, and service. It's for travelers who want the quintessential, elevated Mykonos beach-club experience.

2. Nammos Mykonos

On glamorous Psarou beach, Nammos is the byword for Mykonos excess — a champagne-spraying, superyacht-anchored, see-and-be-seen institution that's as much a status symbol as a restaurant.

Daybeds run from roughly €150–€600+ minimum, and the famously pricey menu (fresh fish by the kilo, lavish seafood platters) can produce eye-watering bills. The crowd is moneyed and international, the atmosphere theatrical. It ranks #2 for its unrivaled glamour and its role as the island's ultimate luxury flex — though value is firmly not the point.

Psarou's sheltered, calm bay is one of the prettiest on the island, and the daybeds line right up to the water, so even amid the spectacle the setting itself is genuinely beautiful. Be warned that the bill here is legendary in its own right; this is the venue people talk about for the price as much as the party.

3. Principote Mykonos

On the calmer northern Panormos beach, Principote offers a more relaxed but still polished luxury experience, with a beautiful all-white-and-natural-wood deck, excellent food, and live music that builds into the evening.

Daybeds run €100–€400 minimum, and the more sheltered north-side location often means calmer water and a slightly less frenetic crowd than the south coast. It ranks for delivering Nammos-tier polish in a more serene setting — a favorite for those who want luxury without the full circus.

4. Alemagou

On the wind-friendly Ftelia beach on the north coast, Alemagou pairs a rustic-chic, thatched-roof aesthetic with strong food and a credible, music-forward daytime scene. It's a kitesurfing beach, so it draws an active, stylish crowd.

Daybeds run €80–€250, and the kitchen — Greek-Mediterranean with a modern twist — is genuinely well regarded. The vibe is laid-back-luxe rather than bottle-service-driven. It ranks for its authentic, design-led atmosphere and its appeal to those who want substance over spectacle.

5. Kalua Mykonos

On the iconic Paradise beach, Kalua is a long-running, energetic beach bar and club that blends sunbed relaxation by day with a famous, foam-and-DJ-fueled party as the afternoon wears on.

Sunbeds run roughly €40–€100, and the party builds dependably into one of the island's livelier daytime scenes. It ranks for bridging the gap between relaxed beach lounging and full-on Mykonos party energy at a more accessible price than the south-coast giants.

6. Super Paradise Beach Club 💎 BEST VALUE

On legendary Super Paradise beach, this is the island's value-and-party champion — a buzzing club where a pair of sunbeds with an umbrella runs around €40–€80 and the music and energy escalate into a genuine afternoon party for far less than Scorpios or Nammos.

You get a beautiful sandy cove, a lively, friendly, mixed crowd, and DJ sets that keep the deck moving. It ranks as Best Value because it captures the essential Mykonos party-beach experience — sun, sea, music, and energy — without a four-figure bill. Arrive earlier in the day to claim the best beds.

7. Branco Mykonos

A more recent arrival on Platis Gialos beach, Branco is the beach club of the Branco hotel, with a sleek, modern-Mediterranean deck, an infinity pool, and quality food. It's polished and contemporary.

Daybeds run €80–€300, and the combination of pool, beach, and restaurant makes it a comfortable all-day base. It ranks for its modern design and the convenience of a pool-plus-beach setup on one of the island's more family-friendly beaches.

8. Jackie O' Beach Club

On Super Paradise beach, Jackie O' is the island's famous LGBTQ+-friendly beach club, known for its flamboyant drag shows, energetic pool parties, and an inclusive, joyful atmosphere that has made it a Mykonos institution.

Sunbeds and daybeds run €50–€150, with the daily drag performances and pool party as the headline draw. It ranks for its iconic status, its inclusive energy, and one of the most genuinely fun party atmospheres on the island.

9. SantAnna Mykonos

On Paraga beach, SantAnna bills itself as home to one of the largest pools in the Mediterranean, with a vast deck, restaurant, and a theatrical, performance-heavy day-party concept featuring dancers and live acts.

Daybeds run €80–€300, and the enormous pool plus beach-club hybrid gives it serious scale. It ranks for its sheer size and its spectacle-driven, all-day entertainment programming — a big, energetic option for groups.

10. Kalo Livadi Beach (various clubs)

The long sandy sweep of Kalo Livadi on the southeast coast hosts a cluster of relaxed, well-regarded clubs and tavernas (including spots like Lohan Beach House) on calmer water that's ideal for families and lower-key days.

Sunbeds typically run €40–€120, and the broad beach offers a gentler, less crowded alternative to the south-coast party strip. It ranks at #10 as the best choice for travelers who want a quality Mykonos beach day without the high-intensity club scene. The calmer, family-friendly water and the cluster of relaxed tavernas make it a genuine alternative to the party strip, and it pairs well with a quieter stretch of the southeast coast for travelers basing themselves away from the town's nightlife.

How to Choose

What to Know Before You Go

Mykonos is famously windy. The island's signature meltemi wind blows hardest on the north coast (Ftelia, Panormos) and can make north-side clubs like Alemagou bracing on exposed days — great for kitesurfers, less so for a calm sunbathing afternoon. The south-coast beaches (Paraga, Psarou, Super Paradise, Paradise) are more sheltered and host most of the marquee party clubs, so if calm water and protected sun are priorities, plan around the south side.

Transport is a real consideration. Taxis are notoriously scarce on Mykonos, especially at peak hours, so most visitors rely on pre-booked transfers, ATV/quad rentals, hotel shuttles, or arriving by boat. Several clubs sit at the end of narrow, unpaved roads; confirm how you'll get there and back before committing to a late-afternoon party that runs past sunset.

Booking and budgeting require discipline. The top clubs — Scorpios, Nammos, Principote — open reservations weeks ahead in July and August, and the best daybeds (stage-side at Scorpios, front-row at Nammos) go first. Be aware that Mykonos has a reputation for steep bills: fresh fish is frequently sold by weight, so always ask the price per kilo before ordering, and review the menu carefully.

Minimum spends are the norm at marquee venues, while relaxed party beaches let you take a sunbed and pay as you go. Dress code is chic-resort; the season runs May to October, peaking in July and August, with June and September widely regarded as the smarter, slightly calmer window.

FAQ

How expensive are Mykonos beach clubs?

Mykonos is among the priciest beach-club destinations in the world. Daybed minimum spends at top venues like Scorpios and Nammos run €150–€600+, and food and drink prices are high (fresh fish sold by the kilo can produce very large bills). More relaxed clubs like Super Paradise and Kalua offer sunbeds for €40–€100 with no four-figure minimum.

Which Mykonos beach club has the best party?

Super Paradise, Kalua (Paradise beach), and Jackie O' deliver the most energetic daytime parties at accessible prices. For an elevated, curated party atmosphere, Scorpios and SantAnna lead the upscale end with DJ sets and live performances.

When is the Mykonos beach-club season?

The season runs roughly May to October, peaking in July and August when programming, crowds, and prices are at their height. June and September offer warm water, full operations, and slightly lower prices — many travelers consider them the ideal window.

Do I need to book a daybed in advance in Mykonos?

For the marquee clubs (Scorpios, Nammos, Principote) in high season, yes — front-row and stage-side beds sell out days ahead. At the more relaxed party beaches you can often walk in and grab sunbeds if you arrive earlier in the day, but reserving online is always safer in peak summer.

Bottom Line

Mykonos beach clubs peak with Scorpios on Paraga — the best overall blend of design, curated sunset music, and quality, with daybed minimums from around €200. For value, Super Paradise Beach Club delivers real Mykonos party energy with sunbeds around €40–€80. Match the venue to your priority — glamour, party, serenity, or budget — and reserve early in July and August.
