Scorpios Mykonos | The BEST Mykonos Beach Club + Tips for Visiting
Scorpios is hands down the BEST beach club in Mykonos! Learn everything you need to know about visiting Scorpios including how to get there, when to go, how reservations work, where to sit, AND how to do it on a budget.
When Mykonos is mentioned, most people immediately think of crowded beach clubs and parties. First off, Mykonos is so much more than that. You could spend days and weeks in Mykonos without realizing this is a party hotspot.
In fact, Mykonos would make for a wonderful family vacation destination. Just read my post on the 10 BEST Things to do in Mykonos, Greece to get a feel for everything this island has to offer that doesn’t involve cocktails and late-night dancing.
Though Jake and I are not “partiers”, we felt it would be a shame not to partake in something Mykonos is known for; the beach clubs.
After much research, we discovered Scorpios Mykonos. It was exactly what we were looking for; a classy, beach club experience.
Perfect for those looking to bypass the heavy drinking and dancing on tables and instead partake in a chill, boho, sophisticated beach club.
Read on to learn all about Scorpios Mykonos, tips for visiting, how to do it on a budget, and why I think it's the best beach club in Mykonos!

Scorpios is not your average beach club
Let me start with, if you're in your college years and looking for a scene with young 20-somethings, champagne showers, bikini attire for women/shirtless for men, and dancing on tables, then this is not the post for you.
Paradise and Super Paradise Beach is the place to head for that type of party.
If you’re looking for something a little more refined with a mix of young professionals from their late 20s to 40s, enjoying cocktails on the beach, swaying to the thrum of the music, and here for the experience versus hammering drinks…then continue reading to discover why Scorpios is the best beach club in Mykonos.

What makes Scorpios the best Mykonos beach club
Jake and I are both in our 30’s. We were looking for an experience that was a bit more unique than the average club. Not some version of a college party that just happens to be on the beach.
Scorpios was the answer to our quest and is without a doubt the BEST Mykonos beach club.
The bohemian design of the club overlooking the turquoise waters transports you to another world. The food, though pricey, is delicious.
The live bands and DJs are thoughtfully chosen and play music that is unique and often local. A mix of Greek instruments and electronic beats. Something you can easily sway to.
The sunset ritual (more on that later) is an experience we will always remember and book every time we visit Mykonos.

Scorpios Mykonos is both a day and night club
Scorpios Mykonos is a day and night club, so you have the option to stay all day or just come for the evening. If price is of no concern, I recommend coming in the afternoon, reserving a sun bed, enjoying a lunch of tapas, and making a day of it.
If you're watching your costs and don’t want to leave with a minimum bill of €200 per person, I recommend coming for the sunset ritual.
You'll get to experience the best part of Scorpios Mykonos for the cost of a €70 bottle of wine.
Money talk - Scorpios Mykonos prices
Reserving a cabana at Scorpios
Let’s talk Scorpios Mykonos prices so you can get a better idea of how to budget your time and money. If you want to make use of the private beach you must reserve a sun bed.
Cabanas are €160 to €180 and can accommodate up to four guests. Additional sun beds are €40. Cabanas can be reserved starting at 11:00 am.
Restaurant at Scorpios Mykonos
The Restaurant at Scorpios Mykonos
The restaurant is open from 1:30 pm to 11:00 pm and serves food focused on Greek ingredients with Mediterranean and Oriental influences. The restaurant is completely outdoors and a fun place to eat.
Expect a pretty hefty bill as the prices are high...especially considering you're in Greece. Penne arrabbiata is €26, greek salad €28, sea bass €65, broccolini side €28, guacamole €24, and hummus €16 (plus €9 for pita bread). If it's within your budget, it’s a wonderful, though overpriced, meal.
If you read reviews on Google or Trip Advisor you will notice that one of the things people mention most is the astronomical prices at the restaurant and club in general.
Don't fret because I'll show you how to visit Scorpios Mykonos on a budget and how Jake and I did it relatively cheaply.
Sunset music ritual prices and options
Starting at 5:00 pm you can reserve a spot at Sunset beach or the Terrace. The Terrace is for groups as table reservations have a €2,000 to €5,000 minimum consumption policy.
Sunset Beach is perfect for couples or anyone who doesn’t want to spend a fortune.
Reservations for Sunset Beach require that you buy a bottle (wine/champagne/liquor for parties of 1-2, must be liquor for parties of 3 or more).
The lowest price for a bottle of wine is about €70. Basic brands of liquor are €160 to €300 for a regular-sized bottle.
Scorpios Mykonos Menus
Above are a few pages from the Scorpios Mykonos Sunset Beach menu. This gives an overall idea of the prices and options for drinks and snacks.
Sunset Music Ritual at Scorpios - the most memorable part
If you do one thing at Scorpios Mykonos it needs to be the Sunset Music Ritual.
Live music typically does not start until 7:00 pm, but the lighting of the incense fire and DJ/recorded music starts around 5:30 pm.
I suggest arriving at 5:00 pm to have time to wander around before sitting.
Check their website to see all the dates for their Music Rituals.
Keep in mind the program may not be released more than one to three months in advance. Lastly, when looking at the schedule, make sure it lists "Mykonos". Scorpios just opened a Bodrum location and they list both locations on their "program" website.
We went on a Saturday night when Valeron was playing, the top DJ and artist in Mykonos. We LOVED his music and definitely recommend choosing a date when he's playing. Lots of instrumentals with an electronic flare.
Steps at Sunset Beach - Scorpios Mykonos
Sunset Beach is the best area to reserve because you're close to the band, have amazing sunset views over the ocean, and can either sit on the steps where they have large cushions and small tables or in the center on the sand (same setup with the large cushions).
In the very center of this setup is a large fire with incense that's lit at the start of sunset.
As I mentioned earlier, reserving a spot in this area requires that you buy a bottle. Jake and I bought one bottle of wine for €50 and nursed that for almost 5 hours. You can also add drinks by glass/cocktails in addition to a bottle.
These are the notes for reserving the sunset beach area for the sunset ritual.
Our music rituals take place here on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. Expect experimental live performances from 7:00 pm. Reservations are taken from 5:00 pm until 7:00 pm.
For up to 2 guests, we offer a selection of wines and cocktails.
For 3 to 6 guests, regular-size bottles of choice are available.
For every 7 guests, a magnum bottle of choice is provided.
Terrace at Scorpios Mykonos
Terrace at Scorpios Mykonos
The Terrace is located above the Sunset beach. It’s perfect if you have a large group and want to be a little more removed from the band and music and place a higher importance on being able to talk with your friends.
Do you need reservations at Scorpios Mykonos?
You 100% need a reservation. Especially if there’s a popular band playing, it's the busy summer months, or a weekend night.
You could maybe get in during the afternoon, but for sun beds, the sunset ritual, and evening performances...chances of getting in without a reservation are low.

How to do Scorpios without breaking the bank
By now I'm sure you've gotten the vibe that this is a place where you could spend hundreds of dollars or get off "cheap", like Jake and I did. Let’s discuss how we did Scorpios Mykonos on a budget.
We arrived at Scorpios at 1:30 pm for lunch reservations. Instead of eating at the restaurant, we ended up eating in the area right next to it that overlooked the beach (the Terrace). It was mid-May so it wasn’t crowded.
The Terrace had a more casual vibe to it in the afternoon and therefore we didn’t feel guilty for ordering very little. A small quinoa salad and two espresso freddos for a total of €32 (would cost around €45 today). Expensive for Greece but cheap compared to the rest of the menu and other beach clubs.
Instead of paying €160+ for a cabana, we walked to Paraga Beach, the neighboring beach behind Scorpios.
It’s a public beach so you can claim your spot of sand or pay for a sun bed. We sat and enjoyed the breeze for a bit before eating something more substantial.
We were pretty hungry come 4:00 pm and didn’t plan on spending an arm and a leg for dinner at Scorpios, so we ate at the highly recommended Tasos Taverna. We had an amazing meal with our table and toes in the sand for €30.
Lunch at Tasos Taverna - Paraga Beach
Paraga Beach - just around the corner from Scorpios
At 5:00 pm we made our way back to Scorpios for our sunset music ritual reservation. I reserved the Sunset beach area which is the best spot to see and enjoy whatever band or DJ is playing that evening.
Your reservation requires that you buy a bottle. We found a €50 bottle of wine (it looks like the least expensive now is €70) and enjoyed the music and sunset views from our spot on the steps.
Since we were there for over 5 hours we later ordered 2 glasses of wine for €14 each. Cocktails are €22.
If I had to do it all over again, keeping in mind our budget, I would have skipped lunch at Scorpios (if you could call our several bites of food and two coffees a lunch) and gone straight to Paraga beach and had a late lunch/early dinner at Tasos Taverna.
Arriving at Scorpios around 5:00 pm and staying through the Music Ritual until about 11:00 pm will give you an amazing experience and you will only have to pay for your bottle of wine.
Walk along Paraga beach to Scorpios (you can see the tents of Scorpios in the distance)
How to get to Scorpios Mykonos
Jake and I took the bus to and from Scorpios Mykonos. Getting there was a lot easier than returning. The Mykonos bus website has a very handy timetable.
If you're staying in Mykonos town you will depart from the Fabrika bus station. Take a picture of the bus schedule that day so you know when buses return to Fabrika.
Tickets are around €2 and you can buy them from the little kiosk right at the station.
We took the bus to Paraga Beach and walked along the beach (about 5 minutes) to arrive at Scorpios. During busy season, July and August, buses will typically continue to run from Paraga beach until 1:30 am.
Unfortunately for us, the buses did not run from Paraga in the evening because we were there in mid-May. We had to get to Paradise Beach via a dark goat path. I kid (pun intended) you not. Thank goodness for phone flashlights!
Not the easiest option, but it was an adventure we laughed through and the cheapest by far.
A car is the easiest option and valet will cost you €10. A taxi will not come cheap and is around €40 each way.
Dress Code for Scorpios
I noticed a range of attire while we were there. Jake and I were casual since we spent the majority of the day there.
We arrived in swimsuits and our nicest coverups and packed shorts, t-shirts, and sandals to change into later. I had a light jacket since the evenings are pretty chilly in May.
People who arrived for the evening (dinner, evening drinks, sunset ritual) were dressed in what I would call evening boho attire; breezy dresses, wide-leg pants, light-weight sweaters, etc. Men wore button-down t-shirts, linen pants, and chino shorts/pants.
While I didn't feel uncomfortable in our casual attire, I would have packed something a tad more dressy if I were to do it over.
For the most part, anything seemed to go as long as you looked "put together". Workout clothes or sloppy attire will not fly here.
Final thoughts...
Before our trip to Mykonos I had the hardest time finding information on how Scorpios Mykonos worked, what the prices were, if you were required to have reservations, etc.
I hope this post helps shed some light so you know how to plan your time and your budget. Scorpios is an experience not be missed and most definitely the best beach club in Mykonos, so be sure to work it into your itinerary!

Looking for tour ideas in Mykonos?
this is really helpful thank you
I’m so glad you found it useful!
What a great article! From a fellow Ash, thank you!
So glad you liked it Ash 🙂
this info is amazing thanks for this, going mid July so is gonna be a lot of stress but well worth it!
So glad this helped with planning! It’s always worth the stress 🙂
Just stumbled on your blog and this is incredibly helpful! My partner and i are planning to visit mykonos in July and i’ve been looking for information on how to book scorpios so very glad you wrote such useful & detailed info! We will definitely be doing the sunset ritual 🙂
Thank you for your kind words and I am so glad you found this helpful. You will LOVE Mykonos. July will be busy so make sure you explore Chora (the popular area) early in the morning and at night.
Hi, thanks for all this detailed explanations that I couldn’t find anywhere else!
Was wondering something though, I’m solo travelling to Mykonos (among other) this summer 21 and though I have do a lot of traveling, beaches and clubs on my own, I’m not sure about if I would feel confortable in Scorpios as it seems that nobody have come alone and as most of the people seems to remain seated and not mix a lot with other people (as opposed to a club or a festival where everybody is on their feet going from one place to another, talking to anyone), I’m wondering if you would have come alone to Scorpios? Thanks for your answer!
Hi Barbara! So glad you found this useful. I didn’t see any solo travelers. It was either groups or couples. Definitely not a club atmosphere where people are mingling. I love traveling solo and am completely comfortable going to places alone, eating by myself, etc., but I would have felt awkward being at Scorpios solo. Hope that helps.
Thanks Ashley! Yes this is exactly what I thought from the pictures and videos I could see…
Idk maybe going to the restaurant would seem less awkward…but the prices… I’ll think about it.
Thanks again for your answer and if you think of some great solo things to see or experience, let me know 😉
Sure thing! I would recommend everything on this post:
https://www.abroadwithash.com/best-things-to-do-in-mykonos-greece/
except driving a car around the island for the day (unless you are SUPER comfortable with manual, hairpin turns, narrow roads). If you want to visit a fun bar, 180 Sunset would be fun and I would feel more comfortable going there than Scorpios solo. It was still mainly couples and groups, but a bit more mingling. I would be 100% fine going there alone, arriving early to grab a cushion on the steps, and take in the sunset with a cocktail in hand. It’s also close to town so you could walk (vs. making the trek to Scorpios).
Hi! Thank you so much for this helpful info.
When you booked your reservation, was it just for “sunset beach” or is there a specific section for the “sunset music ritual”? I didn’t see any rituals scheduled on their website but I know it’s off season!
Yes, the only reservation I booked was a spot at “sunset beach” for the sunset ritual starting at 5:00 pm. The reservation didn’t actually say anything about the “sunset ritual”.
Hi Ashley, this has been such a helpful blog post, thank you! My husband and I are visiting in May and are looking forward to visiting Scorpios. Can you remember if it was possible to order food directly to the Sunset Beach cushions? We have reserved the Sunset Beach at 5pm but would like to eat there as well, and we’re wondering if there are options other than reserving at the restaurant!
Thank you 🙂
I’m so glad you found this post helpful! We didn’t order food at sunset beach nor did we see anyone else ordering food. I’ll shoot you a separate email with a contact a Scorpios so you can get an answer.
Hello – this was SOOOOO helpful. I have reserved my sunset beach spot for 5.30pm but i am getting mixed messages regarding whether you need to be a soho house member or not? Or whether that is just to go to soho roc house? I am not a member and was able to book so i just wanted to double check!! thank you!!
We weren’t members when we visited. I’ll contact you separately with the email I’ve been using to contact Scorpios.
hi can you also email me as well?
I booked ours for 9/27 🙂
Emailed you!
Hi! Thank you so much for this info on Scorpios; it was super helpful!! I’m wondering if it is possible to order food if we reserve a place on Sunset Beach? Or can you only order drinks from Sunset Beach? Let me know, thank you so much!
Best,
Hayley
I’m so glad you found this post helpful! We didn’t order food at sunset beach nor did we see anyone else ordering food. I’ll shoot you a separate email with a contact a Scorpios so you can get an answer.
Hi – I am wondering if you could please send me the contact email at Scorpios. I am also wondering about eating at the sunset ritual.
Also, on their website it says the rituals are not everyday of the week. But the program says that it is. do you know why?
I emailed you…as for the rituals. During high season they are ALMOST every day. I’m actually waiting to hear back about this as well and will update the post when I get an answer. I believe that if there is a band on the schedule, there will be a sunset ritual. If there is no band, then no sunset ritual. You will notice most dates have a band except for a few.
Hi Ash! thank you for your post. This has been super helpful. By any chance do you know Milos island? if yes, could give me a quick review. I am planing to go to Greece with my bf on Aug, unfortunately, we don’t have time to visit Paros 🙁
Hi Kim, I have not been to Milos but have heard AMAZING things about it. It’s on my list as well.
Hi Barbara! This was so helpful. Do you know if there were alcohol minimums when reserving a cabana? Having a hard time finding info. Either way, the Sunset Experience sounds amazing. Thank you!
Hi Catherine, I didn’t reserve a cabana, but since you have to pay just to use the cabana, I would assume they wouldn’t also have a beverage minimum.
I would email [email protected] just to be sure. They are pretty good at getting back within a day or two.
Hi Ashley,
Thank you so much for the useful blog!
Myself and my boyfriend are hoping to visit Scorpios when we go to Mykonos at the start of June, however it seems for the dates we are there they have no availability for sunset reservations 🙁 I was therefore wondering about booking a cabana on one of the beaches for the daytime. It says on the website service to the beach are finishes at 7pm. Do you know if there is any way we would still be able to partake in the sunset ritual session or would we have to leave then?
Also in the day time is there still a good atmosphere/DJs playing? Many thanks XX
Hi Nancy,
When we were there during the day it was very chill. If there was any music at all it was “background music”. Sunset ritual reservations begin at 5:00 pm, but the performances usually don’t start until 6:30/7:00, so you would miss the performance. I would email [email protected] and see if you can be put on a waitlist for the sunset area or possibly book another area (like the terrace).
Hi. Thanks for this it is soooo useful! Can I ask, for the Sunset beach, can you order food too while you have the wine?
So glad you found this post helpful! Yes, they have a menu to order from. It doesn’t have as many items as the restaurant, but there are plenty of options.
This was SO helpful! Was having the same issues as you trying to figure out how it worked/where to make reservations!! Sounds like sunset beach is the way to go. What was the vibe of the restaurant during the day? My group was thinking of getting there at 3pm ish and staying through the night, but can’t decide whether to eat at the restaurant or book a sunset bed and hang there.
Are you able to share your contact that you have at Scorpios? I’m going late July/early Aug and it already looks like there aren’t reservations avail for the whole time I’m there… would love to connect with someone to see if they’re able to get us a rez!
Appreciate all of your insight!!!
[email protected] is usually pretty quick to respond. The restaurant was fairly busy all day and while we didn’t eat at the actual restuarnt, it looked great and I’ve heard good things. I think it depends on 1) how much money do you want to spend 2) how hungry you will be. If you’re ok just snacking and don’t want to spend an arm and a leg on food, I would eat before you arrive at 3:00 pm, and then maybe just order a few snacks in the sunset area.
Thank you so much for this post. As you said in the end, it’s hard to find detailed information online like yours. I really appreciate it <3
Thanks Erika! Glad the post helped…I don’t know why they make it so difficult to find information on how to visit.
Hi Ashley!
Thank for such a detailed post! My wife and I are visiting Mykonos mid-may the same as you guys. I am very curious how the weather was during that time?
It was PERFECT. Mornings and evenings were cool (I would wear a light jacket/sweater) and afternoons were warm (shorts/t-shirts, dresses). We could even lay out but the water was too cold to swim.
Hi Ashley! Thank you so much for sharing this post, it was so helpful. I made a reservation for sunset beach at 5pm. I also made a dinner reservation for that same night at 9pm (we are going for our honeymoon, so planning on this being our “splurge” meal). Do you recommend I keep it that way? Or do you suggest we stay the whole evening on sunset beach and order snacks and do dinner there a different night? Just trying to get the most out of the experience. Thanks!
What a fun place to spend your honeymoon! I would keep that way…I think the timing you have is perfect.
Awesome, thanks so much!
Loved reading all these insights!
If you had only one night and had to choose between 180 sunset bar or sunset ritual at Scorpios, which one would you choose and why?
Scorpios for sure! It’s more memorable and you could easily spend hours and hours there. The sunset music ritual is cool and the live music is usually fantastic. The only reason I would go for 180 is if you have limited time and you wanted something that was close by/easy to get to.
Hi hi!
This is so helpful – even reading through the comments is a HUGE lifesaver (bless you for putting in the work). It looks like the one night we’re in Mykonos (in early August), Scorpios is booked out for Sunset Beach and for dinner :(. However, this is definitely at the top of the list of things we were hoping to do. Do you have any advice on what we can do?
Again, thank you SO much!
Darn! I would email [email protected] and then continue to check back and see if anything opens. In the mean time, I would book a backup reservation at Sunset 180 bar. It has a really cool vibe and it’s walking distance from Mykonos Old Town. Great views too.
Hi Ash,
Love this blog. Thank you so much. I am planning a trip to Greece for early Nov to celebrate my 65th bday with a few girlfriends. I wanted to visit both island maybe Santori for two days and Myknosis 4-5. The problem is most of the boats don’t go back in forth after Oct. We really didn’t want to have to take a full day to fly. Any suggestions?
From the research I’ve done, most boats stop running mid to late October. Unfortunately, your only option will be to fly. Plus, I would fly that time of year regardless b/c if a boat was scheduled, the chance of it getting canceled/delayed due to weather would make me nervous.
Hi Ashley,
Amazing Article, me and my partner are looking to go to Scorpios in early September. Do you know if you can book a day bed for 11/12 and stay all day for the sunset and party? Or do you have to book the night time separately? Also if you leave during the day to go to Paraga Beach for lunch could I re-enter after?
Thanks 🙂
Cam!
Hi Cam, so glad you found this helpful. It’s a “daily fee” for the day beds, so you should have them all day. We didn’t do the day beds when we visited, but my understanding is you have them for the entire day. As for leaving for lunch, I’m sure it would be fine and you could tell your server you’ll be back in an hour. I recommend emailing Scorpios just to check on how that would work: [email protected]. For the sunset ritual, I would book a spot because it’s in a different area (Sunset Beach). When the ritual began, everyone sat at their seats/cushions/etc. So if you didn’t have a reserved spot, I’m not sure where you would go to enjoy the performance. Now, as the night went on, people wandered around and mingled…but everyone had “a spot” in the beginning. Does that make sense?
Hi Ash,
This info was super helpful, I just made my reso for mid September!
Question for you, what did you wear/what did others wear while there? Would be great to know the dress code/vibe going in.
Many thanks!
So exciting! Jake and I were SUPER casual since we spent the entire day there. I started in a swimsuit and cute coverup and changed to shorts and a cute top. I was really glad I brought a jacket as it got pretty chilly when the sun went down. There were other people casual like us, but also people that came just for the sunset ritual that were more dressed up (casual dresses, skirts, etc.). We didn’t feel uncomfortable or super out of place by what we wore though. If you wanted an evening to wear a fun dress this would be it. Next time I visit for the ritual I will probably bring a casual dress.
Hello, thank you for the information! The earliest reservations for the Sunset Beach start at 6pm for the day that I am going. Would you recommend getting there early or will they not let you in until your reservation time? If yes, what time would you suggest?
If it was me, I would probably go early. We hung out by the main bar area until it was time for our seating. I would assume that’s not a problem to hang there if they don’t let you go to your spot on Sunset Beach before 6pm. You can also wander the beach area and boutiques too.
Hi Ashley you are so cute and this post so helpful. Ok I’m a 48 year old mom and am bringing my 20 year old son and 18 year old daughter from the USA in July 2025. We arrive the evening of July 5 and depart the 8th so should we book Scorpios sunset beach for Sunday? I feel like I hear Sunday’s are good, we are on a budget so so I guess we can eat at the taco place before and maybe rent beds at paradise beach then buy the crazy 160 bottle of liquor!!?? How do I know if there will be a DJ/party atmosphere on July 6th? We are staying near the main town in an air bnb. Any other tips you have for earlier in the day that Sunday or all day Monday/ is Kiki restaurant worth it? Should we rent ATVs or too crazy of roads? What is the best beach and how do we get there!! This is a trip of a lifetime bc I have a sabbatical from work and my kiddos are growing up and won’t want to hang with me much longer lol! Momma
Hi Amanda, glad you’ve enjoyed the blog! I would keep on eye on the Scorpios website. They usually list their schedule of live performances…but I think it’s too early for the 2025 schedule. From what I can see, Sunset Beach has the music rituals on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. The Terrace has a DJ on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday.
For things to do, check out my Mykonos post. If you only have Sunday and Monday, I would leave that time for exploring Mykonos. Visiting Kikis and hitting the beaches really only makes sense if you have 3 or more days on the island. I would use those days to focus on Chora (Mykonos town), Little Venice, and one tour.
A kayak tour or catamaran cruise would be a fun activity.
Scorpios beach is one of the best beaches, so I wouldn’t go out of your way to visit another one…just soak up your time at Scorpios and the beach behind it (Paraga Beach)
I would NOT do an ATV. Between crazy drivers, other people on ATVs/scooters who don’t know what they are doing, and with sharp turns, steep inclines, etc…just not a great idea.
Hi!! Thank you so much for keeping up with this forum- it’s so helpful! I saw another post of yours that you mentioned that at sunset beach no one was eating… Would you recommend brining in food/is that allowed? I’m trying to avoid having to make a reservationat the restaurant and make it even more expensive. Also, do you know what the cancellation policy is? I can’t find it online. I was looking to make a 5pm reservation at sunset beach on a Wednesday or Friday for the sunset ritual.
Hi Kylie, from what I see on the reservations page, it’s a 48-hour cancellation policy. I would not recommend bringing outside food…I’m sure it’s not allowed. If you’re trying to keep costs down, stop by one of the restaurants along Paraga Beach before the sunset ritual.
Hi Ashley,
First, this guide is amazing, thank you for taking the time to put it together. I am reading that the ‘you don’t miss this’ event is the Sunday party at Scorpios. Do you have any intel on this? would it function the same way that the sunset rituals work (i.e. do you book sunset beach for the sunday party?) There is nothing about Sunday on the actual website just the “our music rituals take place here on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. etc” comment. TLDR what section should we book for Sunday party and is it better than sunset ritual? also when should we expect the dj list to come out, going at the end of may. Thank you!!
I’ve heard Sunday (called Sneaky Sunday) is the big party night. We didn’t go specifically for that reason, so I’m not much help there. I heard it can be crowded and is quite the scene. My guess is that most the action would take place on the Terrace (that’s the best area for DJ setup/dancing. Sunset Ritual was a wonderful experience and offered a great vibe. That’s what I will choose every time, but that’s b/c Jake and I aren’t big partiers.
I have a question because my friends and I are planning to go soon. So when you cone in for the sunset beach, you are allowed to stay whatever time you want? Thanks
Yes, after the sunset ritual we stayed until about 11:00 pm. Some people stick to their spot while others start to mix and mingle.
