Delos

"We found this to be a really great adventure from Mykonos. You can walk around the island and really get up close and personal with the ancient ruins there, more-so than anywhere else we visited. There is also a museum with some of the more well-preserved statues found on the island. Do know what you're getting into though: The boat ride from Mykonos, while not very long, can get rough if the wind picks up or water gets choppy. Recommend going in the morning for calmer water. Make sure that you carry water and snacks with you, as there are no shops selling food or drinks on the island. There is hardly any shade in Delos, so remember to bring your hat and wear sunscreen.
