Beach Club

The verdict
- Book ifYou want one address on Super Paradise that gives you a saltwater swim, a pool and jacuzzi, a proper Mediterranean lunch and a nightly cabaret, in front of a warm mostly LGBTQ crowd
- Skip ifYou are after a hushed stretch of sand or a fixed bill, because the bar and the shows keep the energy high and no sunbed price or minimum spend is quoted before you arrive
- One thing to knowThe drag sets fronted by Athena Dion, timed by guides at about 7pm and 9pm, are the real headline, and the kitchen keeps serving until the club winds down near 1am

Jackie O' Beach is the seaside half of a small Mykonos empire that began with the Jackie O' bar in town, and it wears that heritage openly. Set on a terraced deck above the turquoise scoop of Super Paradise bay, it stacks a swimming pool, a jacuzzi and a circular 360 Open Bar over a spread of loungers that run down to the water, and it folds a full Mediterranean restaurant into the middle of it all. What makes it worth a page of its own is not any one of those pieces but the way the day is choreographed, an easy swim and long lunch that tips, once the sun drops, into a camp and genuinely warm cabaret.
That is the lens we bring to the wider Mykonos club directory, where the south coast alone offers more beach clubs than any one holiday can absorb. Jackie O' earns its spot by refusing to be only one thing, a bathing club, a kitchen and a show under a single roof, and by being one of the few places on the island where the evening is the point rather than an afterthought.

The bay by day, the cabaret by night
Arrive before lunch and Jackie O' behaves like a smart bathing club with an unusually good view of its own. The bay below is one of the clearest on Super Paradise, and you can drift between a saltwater dip off the loungers, the pool on the deck and the jacuzzi without ever queuing for a drink, because the 360 Open Bar sits in the centre and the service reaches every zone. This is the calm shift, families and couples included, and the crowd is mixed and unbothered.
For a wanderer who reads a club by its kitchen and its music, the middle of the day is when the restaurant shows its hand. The menu is Mediterranean and ambitious for a beach, the sort of long lunch you linger over rather than graze, and it is served with the same view whether you sit on the upper terrace or at a table near the sand. Then comes the switch that sets this place apart. As the light goes gold the tone lifts toward the evening cabaret, hosted by the resident performer Athena Dion, with sets that independent guides put at around seven and nine at night. The room fills, the crowd tilts to a mostly LGBTQ audience, and the show carries the club through dinner until it closes near one in the morning.
Where it asks for trust is the bill. Jackie O' does not post sunbed prices or a minimum spend, and a day that begins with a lounger and ends with dinner and cocktails through the show can climb quickly, so pinning down the sunbed rate and any spend before you commit is the sensible defence. The other honest note is expectation. If you come purely for a silent beach you will find the pool, the bar and the sound at odds with that, whereas if you come for the scene you will find it is one of the few clubs on the island that truly earns its evening.
Super Paradise beyond the deck

The club owns its patch of sand and deck, but the cove itself belongs to everyone, and the swimming here is a real draw rather than a backdrop to the bar. For how the cove reads on its own, away from the deck, our write up of Super Paradise beach and the roundup of the Mykonos party strip show what lies to either hand.
The practical part
Jackie O' is one of the easier south coast clubs to reach because it keeps a large parking area with valet, so unlike much of Super Paradise you are not left circling for a space. A short drive from Mykonos town gets you there, the blue KTEL buses stop close by, and the Old Port water taxis that hop the south beaches also call at the bay. The one thing to plan is the way home, since those water taxis stop in the early evening, well before the cabaret ends, so a late finish at the show means a taxi or a hire car waiting. Booking is friendliest for daytime loungers, which you can often take on the day out of peak, while a dinner table on a show night should be reserved ahead through the club.
Prefer to lock it in before you fly out? Tell us the date, how many of you there are, and whether it is a daytime lounger or a table for the cabaret you want, and our team will run the sunbed, spend and reservation queries past Jackie O' directly, then come back with what is open. Asking costs you nothing.

Jackie O' Beach questions, answered
What time is the drag show at Jackie O' Beach in Mykonos?
The nightly cabaret is the signature of the place, hosted by resident performer Athena Dion, with sets that independent guides time at roughly seven and nine in the evening. The kitchen and the 360 Open Bar keep going after that, so the club stays lively until it closes around one in the morning. If the show is your reason to come, book a dinner table rather than a lounger and ask for a seat with a view of the stage.
Does Jackie O' Beach have a pool and can you swim in the sea?
It has both, which is unusual for the bay. There is a pool and a jacuzzi on the raised deck above the sand, plus loungers right down at the waterline of Super Paradise, so you can pick a saltwater swim in a sheltered cove or a poolside afternoon with bar service. Towels, umbrellas and sunbeds are hired at the beach, and the pool sits beside the central 360 Open Bar.
Is Jackie O' Beach a gay club and is it family friendly?
It reads as both at once. Jackie O' is the beach sibling of the well known Jackie O' bar in Mykonos town and draws a mostly LGBTQ crowd, yet it describes itself as family friendly and the daytime beach and pool are relaxed and mixed. The camp energy sharpens in the evening around the drag sets, so the vibe you meet depends heavily on the hour you arrive.
How much does Jackie O' Beach Club cost?
The club does not publish sunbed rates or a set minimum spend, and both move with the row, the season and whether you take a lounger, a pool bed or a restaurant table, so we hold every figure as to be confirmed. The safest move is to agree the sunbed price and any spend requirement with the team before you settle in, and to reserve a table directly if you want dinner and the show.
Do you need a reservation at Jackie O' Beach Mykonos?
For a daytime lounger in early season or midweek you can often just turn up, but a dinner table on a show night is a different matter and worth booking ahead through the club's own reservation channel. Weekends and August fill the restaurant fast, and a booked table is also the surest way to guarantee a seat for the cabaret rather than watching from the bar.
How do you get to Jackie O' Beach on Super Paradise?
The club sits above Super Paradise on the south coast, a short drive from Mykonos town, and it keeps a large parking area with valet, which is a genuine convenience on this beach. The south coast water taxis from the Old Port also call at Super Paradise, and the blue KTEL buses run nearby, though the last boats back leave in the early evening so a late night at the show means arranging a taxi or car home.
