Things to do - Mykonos, Santorini, Corfu
As part of a longer trip, we are doing a Greek islands cruise in late May. It's a family trip with an age range of 26-85. We stop in Mykonos, Corfu, and Santorini (afternoon/evening only in Santorini). I'm looking for some interesting things to do. We don't want to do the actual cruise excursions. Not looking for something too active, and bonus points for accessibility for the benefit of the older generation. I've read about wineries in Santorini but I'd love a personal recommendation for one. I know Mykonos is known for its beaches - it probably won't be swimming weather but a particularly scenic area would be nice to visit. Thanks in advance for any ideas!
Re: Things to do - Mykonos, Santorini, Corfu
In Mykonos we did an excursion to Delos (not offered by cruise). It was a fairly short, easy walk to a boat and a maybe 20 min boat ride to Delos (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delos). It's a fun island to explore if you're into ruins. There's a museum and lots of stuff in one central area for those who aren't as active and there's a semi-serious hike to the highest point for great views for those who want something more challenging.
Other than that, we just enjoyed wandering around getting semi-lost in Mykonos.
In Corfu we took a bus to a beach (nice but very rocky) and wandered around the 'main' part of the city. I don't remember that it had an exact name but it was kinda a boardwalk/promenade type thing with lots of fun shops and restaurants. We also wandered around the old citadel - no official tours but just a cool place to explore.
