The rounded stones that make up this natural phenomenon, unique to
Mykonos, are known as Houlakia. You will not find this anywhere else.
You might find rounded stones elsewhere, but not with the composite,
color or size of the stones forming Houlakia beach. These incredible,
rounded stones have been formed, while tumbling around in the sea for
thousands of years, some being reclaimed to create this beach. Houlakia
is a natural, protected area where it is now prohibited to remove any
of these special stones.
