Beautiful views but light house is ver run down, definitely in need of some TLC. Road close to light house is not suitable for non 4wheel cars

Took the ATV up here-almost lost my atv going backwards...just drive right up to the lighthouse and not go off to the side...very steep cliffs and very narrow turnaround. You aren't able to go into the lighthouse, but it gives you great views of the water!

We hired quad bikes one day and made our way out to the lighthouse. It's easy to find and fairly remote but gives great views over the sea. The lighthouse is a little run down and in need of some upkeep but you can wander around the floors to your heart's content. Certainly a cheap way to while away an... More

We were the by quad that you can rent on every corner. The lighthouse is nice to see, a bit rosty, and good history about it. View around is amazing!

The lighthouse is a fun place to visit. When you see it, you may think it is abandoned until they paint it every year. Each year, the islands often touch up the paint and make everything look new that only takes a year to look 1,000 years old again. Worth the trip

Don't mind the bad road, u will be awarded with great views of the Aegean and you'll be able to see Tinos, Syros, Naxos and of course Delos. The deep blue indeed. The old lighthouse is nice and reminds a forgotten era. It is very windy there but it's aegean experience.

It's good to escape up there for pictures ans to see something different, but be aware of the really bad road. The building needs of major fixing and repears but nobody seems to care in Mykonos. After all is a money oriented island!!! The same goes to Delos Island!
