Paradise Club
| RE-ENTRY

The definition of arcadia — the promised land — no doubt varies from person to person. Saying that, it's fair to assume those with a penchant for sand, sea and sick-ass drops might have Paradise Club, Mykonos, in mind as theirs.

Named after the same stretch of coastline it shares with Cavo Paradiso, this beach bar/terrace hybrid is a hair's breadth bigger than its local rival, but shares most of its qualities.

Positioned lower on the rugged rock peninsula, Paradise Club's vantage point isn't as high as Cavo's yet the glistening Aegean Sea is in full view.

There's also a luminous, aqua blue pool beside which the island's oil-tanned EDM-loving Adonises rub shoulders to the likes of Avicii, Carl Cox, Bob Sinclar and Afrojack, while caustic white-wash, terracotta terraces and orange sunsets conjure a scene from Wish You Were Here, just with a thumping soundtrack.
