SWEAT, TEARS, PARADISE

A rave on the beach, zephyrs of an untamed sea, cerulean waters, mysterious beasts, flaming absinthe, onyx rock cliffs, shots of lightning in a stark black sky, salted air and ocean mist, the rhythm of waves crashing to the downbeat, an otherworldly place.

1995, MYKONOS

The Club: Cavo Paradiso | Perched atop a Mykonos cliff, Cavo Paradiso overlooks an endless sea where people gather to worship the horizon that divides day from night. In 1993, Nikos Daktylides saw this view and imagined a temple for music. It still remains the same decades later, a place where DJs summon sunlit reverie and Mediterranean summer nights feel eternal. The surrounding natural beauty is uniquely incorporated into its design, with visitors dancing from dusk until dawn in order to see the sunrise creep up the sky. In its sun-kissed view is the majestic Island of Delos, the birth-place of Apollo. Cavo Paradiso is a reminder that paradise may be a place, but it’s also a feeling found in the night.
