Description
About Paxos!
A bunch of small islands, the biggest of which is called Paxos (19 s.Km) are situated on the North -West of Greece in the Ionian Sea. Only 12 nautical miles away from the mainland and just 7 nautical miles away from Corfu. (Lat: 38.97, Lon:23.15) There are four main villages on the island, Gaios, Lakka, Loggos and Magazia. The land is full of hills and countless olive groves.
The natural, fiord-like harbour of Gaios reflecting the typical Paxiot houses on the seafront is a memorable sight, as well as the old Venetian castle on St Nicolas' island and the isle of Madonna with the monastery and the lighthouse which both act as a natural watershed.
Visit Antipaxos, enjoy swimming in the crystal-clear, turquoise waters and unwind while sunbathing on the sandy beaches of Voutoumi or Vrika. Go hiking around the island to see the vineyards and discover the traditional cottages hiding in the olive groves.
