Paxos and Antipaxos sit at the heart of the Ionian — two small islands with some of the clearest water in Greece, dramatic white cliffs, and villages that feel untouched by mass tourism. This fully private cruise departs from Arillas Harbour — a 5-minute drive from Karavostasi Beach (Elix Hotel), with complimentary transfer included for Elix guests.

The 4-hour itinerary takes you straight to the highlights: swim and snorkel at Voutoumi Beach on Antipaxos — a stretch of white sand and turquoise water that rivals any beach in the Mediterranean — before cruising past the islets of Skaltsonisi and Mongonisi and finishing with free time in Gaios, Paxos' charming harbour capital.

The 6-hour itinerary covers everything in the Classic option and adds the most dramatic scenery on the route. You'll cruise the west coast of Paxos to reach the Blue Caves — a series of sea caves where the light turns the water an electric blue — and stop at Erimitis Bay, one of Paxos' most secluded beaches. From there, the route continues to Lakka, a tranquil village at the top of the island, and past Ortholithos and the iconic Tripitos Arch before heading back.

Both itineraries operate aboard our Jeanneau Cap Camarat 7.5cc — a premium 25ft vessel with a 250HP Suzuki engine, comfortable for up to 8 guests.
