Gourmet Tour - Mykonian Seafood Treasures

OVERVIEW

Dine at a waterfront restaurant on Paraga Beach, an ideal setting to savor signature seafood of Mykonos. On the way there, you will pass through the naturally beautiful landscape that is so representative of Mykonos. Upon reaching Paraga, the island’s southernmost beach, you will settle in at Tasos Tavern, which overlooks a lengthy stretch of white sand and the turquoise waters of the Aegean Sea. It has become a dining institution of sorts, having opened in 1962. The large islands that you will see on the not too distant horizon are Paros and Naxos. The waters surrounding Mykonos yield an abundance of fish, squid and mussels, some of which may on the lunch menu. A meze of grilled sardines seasoned with olive oil and lemon juice might also be served. To complement the meal, you will enjoy wines that pair perfectly with the dishes.
