Introduction

The Mykonos windmills stand on a ridge facing the southern sea breeze — the island's most iconic silhouette, milling wheat since the 16th-century Venetian era, their wooden sails and white cylinders vivid against the blue. Next to Little Venice, they are the classic spot for sunset and Aegean light; some interiors are small museums of the island's farming and maritime past. At night their lights meet the harbour — forever the postcard's hero.
