Little Venice is also known as Alefkandra. The buildings here were built right on the water and have balconies overlooking the sea. It is thought that they were built this way during the time of pirates so that goods could be quickly loaded and unloaded. Now when you visit this area of Hora, you will find many very nice restaurants, right by the water. You can have a lovely dinner at one of them ,sit back ,relax and watch the sunset! Leave a Comment Directions: West part of Mykonos town , right on the sea...or if you see the famous row of Hora windmills..just walk down the little hill...and you are there!

This is, of course, a must-see when you are visiting Mykonos Town. Little Venice, also known as Alefkandra, is a collection of colourful, traditional houses with old wooden balconies hanging right over the sea. This little areas comes alive especially in the evening when people gather from all over the island to watch the sunset. There are many cafes and restaurants here (expensive, but I would say worth it once!) as well as some souvenir stands and art galleries. There's also a rocky little beach next to it where you can go for a nice stroll and get some nice photos of this popular place. You can also enjoy the sunset from the windmills overlooking the Little Venice Quarter, for free.
Mykonos suffered greatly under the rule of the Ottoman Empire, because it was a little ignored during that period and became a haven for pirates. The buildings here in Little Venice were built the way they are so that loading and unloading of goods could be done quickly. Leave a Comment

"Little Venice" is a place which is situated near the center of capital town of Mykonos called ''CHORA''. The view of the ''Little Venice'' is amazing, colourful and traditional houses have an excellent view with the balcony's that hang over the sea. In late afternoon the privileged view of the marvelous sunset in the specific area attracts visitors from all over the island. Leave a Comment

Little Venice is charming. L=1ocated by the water edge, it's filled with bars, seafood restaurants and little shops. It comes alive in the evening as this is a great place for spectacular sunsets. Would you believe that the sun sets here at 8.30pm???
The only downside to this place is that it's expensive. Heck, everything in Mykonos is expensive!

Mikri Venetia (Little Venice) is a small part of Chora where -in a row- some colorful houses built by the sea and they have their balconies made of wood hanging up above the waves. After so many years I still wonder how they keep them alive from wind and salty water...
Most of them are nice cafes/pubs now where you can enjoy your coffee or cocktail. The prices are higher than anywhere else in the island.
The restaurants here are expensive too but from the other side the view is great with the windmills above the hill and the sunset coming in front of you….

Little Venice is a cluster of cafes nestled along the Aegean across from the windmills. I can't remember the name of the restaurant where we ate, but the food was excellent and sitting along the water made it all the better to just relax and enjoy!

The "Little Venice" quarter of Mykonos Town consists of numerous (and expensive) seaside bars and restaurants and souvenir shops.
Sit by the water's edge and have a meal and a drink and watch the cosmopolitan mix of people passing by - but be prepared to pay a high price for this pleasure!
The sea washes up against the homes that line the edge of the coast and small wooden balconies sit precariously above the waves. This row of houses (that look as though they could be washed out to sea on a stormy day) appear on many postcards and holiday brochures.
A good place to soak up the atmosphere and "people watch". Leave a Comment

This is a harbor area of the island. This is the spot where you most likely come to watch the sun set. It is set next to the windmills so you can't miss it.
There are a lot of restaurants, tavernas and night clubs. Leave a Comment

Plenty of restaurants and cafes built next to the open sea and a small path that you may walk on the stony beach Leave a Comment
