Paxos & Antipaxos Blue Caves Cruise
Sea caves, Caribbean coves and two tiny islands south of Corfu
Skip to content
About 28 nautical miles south of Corfu, the little island of Paxos and its even smaller sister Antipaxos are the southern anchor of the Ionian corridor: limestone cliffs riddled with blue sea caves on the west coast, and, off Antipaxos, the Caribbean-blue sandy coves of Voutoumi and Vrika. A private cruise makes a full, unhurried day of it — caves in the morning light, a swim over white sand, lunch in a harbour taverna.
The day
You leave Corfu (Gouvia or the northeast coast) in the morning calm and run south, the mainland mountains to port. First the west coast of Paxos — Ortholithos, the Grammatiko and Kastanida caves — reached by tender where the yacht is too big to enter, then across to Antipaxos to anchor over the pale sand at Voutoumi and Vrika for the day's best swim.
Lunch is in Gaios, Paxos's main port entered through a channel behind a wooded islet, or in the natural inlet at Lakka, before an afternoon return to Corfu.
The boat
We match the vessel to the sea state and your party — a fast motor yacht keeps the transit short and the swimming long, a catamaran gives shade and stability for families. Every option is crewed, with the tender for the caves.
Rates on request — every day is quoted individually by our concierge.
