Mykonos; the lesser talked about touristic island of Greece

It was when I was watching Netflix’s recent scandal documentary The Tinder Swindler, that I first came to learn of the existence of a certain Greek island – Mykonos. This got me thinking; “if this is the first time I have come to hear of this scenic slip, how many of us are unaware of the place even existing?”

Mykonos, a Greek island that is part of the Cyclades lies between the islands Tinos, Syros, Paros and Naxos (all of which, most of us might be hearing for the first time) is roughly 85 square kilometers and rises to an elevation of approximately 340 meters at its highest point. The island is situated in the Aegean Sea just southeast of mainland Greece and was a former administrative prefecture of the country as well.
