We will have one day on Mykonos but don't care about beaches. Should we go to Delos?

Enjoy Mykonos windmills by day, explore the inner Mykonos paths for photo taking and yes see Delos. Ferries will. Not go if seas are rough or off and shoulder season so Ck first for planning purposes.
Enjoy it is lovely and oh so white and blue.

Go to Delos if you enjoy Ancient Greek History and archaeology.

Thank you so much. Should we book a tour? One of our party has mobility issues.

Others may disagree but if you do not like beaches, go to Delos. I've been to Mykonos and found it boring because I do not like it’s beach scene. IMO, Mykonos is best for people who like beaches in the daytime and partying or walking around showing off designer fashion in the evenings.

I'm thinking Delos is the way to go. Thank you. A little exploring but Delos first.

Should we go to Delos?

Absolutely! Fantastic if you care anything at all about Greek History.

I was there for one day earlier this month. I wasn't interested in beaches either, and I found wandering around the town itself took about half a day. I walked up to the windmill on the hill for a nice view and I enjoyed that.

I didn't go to Delos because it was a cruise stop and I didn't want to be rushed in the town, plus I had already seen so many archaeological sites that trip, so I decided to leave that for next time.

However, the second half of the day was a bit difficult to fill. My friend loves shopping so I basically accompanied her for the rest of the day, though I got a little bored.
