What it's like

Fokos Beach is a secluded volcanic beach reached on horseback from Horseland in Maou, Ano Mera. The ride is the usual way in, since the beach is reached through the Cycladic landscape rather than by a short walk from town.

A visit is a ride of about 3.5 hours. The route passes the volcanic coast, and riders can go along the sea waves or paddle in still water. The beach stop lasts about 1.5 hours, with a seaside taverna nearby for a meal, and the horses can roll in the golden sand.

Good to know

Experienced riders can ride on the golden sands of Fokos only on the morning route.
Food consumption at the seaside taverna is not included in the price of the ride.
Taxis on Mykonos are scarce and there are only about 30 on the whole island, so arrange transport to Horseland early.
