    Elia Beach from Greco Philia Suites

    Een van de grootste stranden op Mykonos en het meest populaire homoseksuele strand, Elia Beach is goed beheerd met veel goede kwaliteit ligbedden en schaduwplekken voor huur.
    Aan het rechteruiteinde (als je naar de zee kijkt), staat een regenboogvlag. Het gebied tussen de watersportverhuursectie en de vlag wordt steeds homoseksueler. De kwaliteit van het zand boven en onder de waterlijn is op zijn best in dit gebied.
    Verder dan de rotsachtige uitloper naar het einde (verder dan de regenboogvlag) ligt een tweede strand dat bijna geheel homoseksueel is met enige nudisme. Verder naar achteren ligt een veel kleinere zandbaai die voornamelijk wordt bezet door homoseksuele naaktzonnende badgasten.
    Ligbedden en parasols zijn beschikbaar voor huur. Klanten kunnen efficiënte drank- en voedseldienst verwachten. Een selectie van sandwiches, pizza's, pasta, salades wordt op bestelling bereid in het nabijgelegen Arte & Mare Resort restaurant en, samen met alcoholische en niet-alcoholische dranken, bezorgd door loopjongens bij uw bed.
    Voedsel en drankjes kopen van het strandpersoneel is een goede manier om voorrang te krijgen voor de ligstoelen voor de volgende dag. Er is ook een uitstekend strandrestaurant in het midden van het hoofdstrand, dat verschillende vis- en vleesgerechten serveert.
    Geen van de opties is goedkoop. Neem dus uw eigen water, sigaretten, enz. mee. Onze strandbediende (Erick) was een gebruinde, gladde Griekse hunk die ons elke uur of zo liet bestellen van zijn menu.
    Elia Beach is 's ochtends meestal rustig met mensen die rond de lunchtijd aankomen en 's avonds vertrekken. Na 5 uur wordt het rotsachtige gebied achter de stranden erg cruisy. De enige privacy is achter stenen muren, en zelfs dan neemt u grote risico's met de uitzonderlijk prikkende struiken die de rotsen bedekken.

    Hoe kom je bij Elia Beach?


    a) Huur een auto en rijd. Er is een parkeerplaats bij het strand. U kunt door de geasfalteerde parkeerplaats rijden en rechtsaf slaan naar een informele parkeerplaats die langs de achterkant van het strand loopt. Wij denken dat rijden de beste optie is als u in een groep bent en van plan bent om Elia de meeste dagen te bezoeken.
    b) Neem de bus vanaf het Noordelijke Busstation (dicht bij de oude havenveerhaven), bussen vertrekken op regelmatige tijden vanaf 11 uur - controleer bij het station voor het huidige schema.
    c) Neem de bus vanaf het hoofd Zuidelijke Busstation naar Plato Yailos, dan neemt u een watertaxi naar Elia.

    Really bad

    Really bad. Arrogant and worst drinks ever. Really not worth the money. I was shocked. The beach is beautiful but the service is absolutely atrocious.

    You thought there was only Mykonos? Good.

    Gay Americans should continue to go to overrated Mykonos so they don't bother gay Euros who have found other options on other islands...

    Great Experience and Awesome Beach!

    Visited the beach and it’s about €20 euro for a bed and umbrella. Travelling solo it was quite easy to get the bus from the old port (about €2 euro one way) and sunbathe nude and swim nude. The trails on the hill are open and you see everything, enjoy or take part you only live once. Water is crystal clear with little to no waves. Recommend bringing a big bottle of water and cigarettes with you and food if you don’t want to pay €14 euros for a meal. Mykonosbusschedule.com will give you a good schedule of the buses and last bus leaves back to Mykonos town around 7:30... also the bus stop is a walk out to the road. Look for people congregating it’s not near the entrance. Massage is available on the beach about €1 euro per min.

    Chairs are 80 EUR, not even close to being worth it.

    Chairs are 30 EUR plus you are required to purchase a mandatory 50 EUR in food making the chairs effectively 80 EUR. We wanted to enjoy here but that price is outrageous so we passed. The chairs were only 15% full at the time, it seemed the vendor didn't care.

    Great beach with large gay crowd

    Nice beach on the south side of Mykonos. Gay area is far right if your facing water. Rent a lounge chair for 15€ per day. Very comfortable. Food and drinks are delivered to your chair. Chairs are new. Reasonable prices. Parking is free. You can also lay on the sand for free. Water is chilly but you can swim. No fish, clear water, sandy bottom. Gets windy at times. Some water activities but this is not popular. Note: bring your own towel and water.

    A real for different gay people

    I had been at Elia 7 years ago and now it's more interesting place for holiday. Firstly sunbeds became more convenient, people younger and more fashion. Of course you pay 15 euro for sunbed and in three rows in front of the sea you get an obligation to make orders food/drinks without ability to bring your ones (someones ignores that - no see fight for it). But thanks to these rules and new expensive sunbeds you get more interesting and bright people around who enjoy life without any family saving restrictions. If you don't agree you always can go to free places and watch nothing but each other only or boring another couples. Secondly there is cruising in rocks till now despite Grinder and etc. You see a person and without exhaustible "sexting" you go to hidden places for real fun. We're going to Super Paradise for diversity but decided it would be exsessive. I recommend this place absolutely but in the beginning get information about rules with food/drinks from experienced persons that not to be confused with...

    Never again

    Elia will never see us again. 30 euros for 2 sunbeds. The guys who run the place act as if it belongs to them, reserving all the best seats with ice buckets for their buddies and chasing paying customers and make them feel like fools if they accidentally sit on one of 'their' loungers.

    Great beach, bad service

    My friends and I have been coming to this beach for 10 years. The beach is so beautiful, but sadly it is ruined by the bad service of the of the company that provides the chairs and food. The waiters are like "fly's" trying to sell you food and drinks all day long. Like being in a market in Morocco-sans charm...

    Great beach, bad service in the gay restaurant

    Elia beach is lovely and crystal clear. The water is a bit cold but it is wonderful. The rocky area (far right when you see the sea) is more like a cruising point for older guys. The gay area has bad service as they ask you to pay 25 euro for sunbeds plus force you to order food and drinks (!) and their quality is not good at all. Also the waiters (they are Albanians not Greeks as someone mentioned here) are a bit rude (the way they told us that you have to pay was awkward) and not willing to help you... I would say they were mostly interested in either flirting with girls or sucking up on old rich guys (who order a lot, and give them tips). I would suggest sitting on your towel and perhaps bringing an umbrella, saves your hard-working money that could be spent on better services! PS: There's no toilet!

    Service in gay end is not as good

    The gay end of the beach (far right when looking at the water) unfortunately has the worst service. So instead of paying for the sunbeds you could just sit on your own towel (plenty of people do). Saves the attendants demanding you keep ordering all day even though you've already paid 25 euro for 2 beds! (We had one attendant that got an order wrong and then wanted us to pay for it anyway?!). The service in the area directly in front of the restaurant or the section just to the right is friendlier. The beach itself is divine so don't feel like you need to drop a lot do cash to enjoy it.
