Getting to the island
Travel
01Fly to Corfu
Book flights to Corfu International Airport.
02Cross to Paxos
Take a ferry or pre-booked water taxi to Gaios.
03Travel on island
Collect a hire car or moped, or arrange a local taxi.
Ferries
Seasonal passenger ferries run from Corfu Town to Gaios. Timetables for September 2027 may not be published until closer to the date; however, please ensure you leave a generous connection from your flight and book once schedules open.
Please see the links below for ferry schedules and tickets. We recommend Ferryhopper.
We recommend pre-booking once schedules open and allowing at least two hours between landing at Corfu Airport and your ferry departure from Corfu Town. Private sea taxis are also available for groups or late arrivals.
On Paxos
Paxos is compact, but a hire car or moped makes beaches, villages and evening journeys much easier. Vehicles are limited in summer, so pre-book where possible.

What to do in Paxos
A relaxed shortlist of beaches, boat days, villages, walks, places to eat and the island’s wilder corners — all laid out below so it is easy to browse at a glance.
01
Find a beach
Pebble coves, glassy water and a very loose plan.
- LevrechioA small, clear-water cove about five minutes on foot from Loggos; easy for a quick swim.Map ↗
- MarmariA quieter cove just beyond Levrechio, shaded by olive trees and good for snorkelling around the rocks.Map ↗
- KipiadiOne of the island’s longer pebble beaches, with room to spread out and a calm east-coast feel.Map ↗
- Harami & KanoniSheltered swimming around Lakka bay; Harami has more facilities, while Kanoni feels simpler.Map ↗
- MonodendriAn easy-access, organised beach with watersports and a livelier daytime atmosphere.Map ↗
- ErimitisA dramatic west-coast setting reached by a steep approach; bring proper shoes and check conditions.Map ↗
- Vrika & VoutoumiThe headline Antipaxos bays: pale sand, bright water and best reached by boat.Map ↗
02
Get on the water
Boat first, timetable second.
- Hire a small boatA classic Paxos day. Lower-powered boats are often available without a licence after a safety briefing.Map ↗
- Book a skipperThe easy option for the west coast, caves and a longer loop without worrying about navigation.Map ↗
- Blue CavesA string of limestone caves and arches along the west coast; morning light and calm seas are ideal.Map ↗
- SUP or kayakBest for calm bays and shorter coastal potters close to shore.Map ↗
- Snorkel or diveTry the rocky edges of Marmari, Kipiadi and Monodendri, or book a guided dive.Map ↗
- Waterski or wakeboardAvailable through local watersports operators, especially around the east coast.Map ↗
03
Harbour hop
Three villages, each with its own pace.
- LoggosThe smallest harbour: pastel waterfront, slow lunches and Levrechio and Marmari within walking distance.Map ↗
- LakkaA sheltered horseshoe bay in the north, with waterfront tables and Harami and Kanoni nearby.Map ↗
- GaiosThe main town for cafés, shops, evening wandering and boats to Antipaxos.Map ↗
- Magazia & FontanaInland villages for a quieter coffee, a taverna stop and a glimpse of everyday island life.Map ↗
- MongonissiA relaxed southern detour with a sheltered bay and views towards the small islets.Map ↗
04
Go wild west
Cliffs, caves and bigger views.
- Tripitos ArchA natural limestone arch reached by a rough trail from the Ozias side; sturdy shoes are essential.Map ↗
- Erimitis cliffsOne of the island’s strongest west-coast viewpoints, especially in the late afternoon.Map ↗
- OrtholithosA freestanding sea stack best viewed from a boat on a west-coast trip.Map ↗
- Ypapanti CaveOne of the larger Blue Caves, usually visited by organised or skippered boat.Map ↗
- Plani & Lakka lighthouseRocky northern scenery, open Ionian views and a good sunset wander.Map ↗
05
Walk & explore
Olive shade, old paths and a few proper shoes.
- Olive-grove pathsThe inland network links hamlets, chapels and old stone walls; go early or late and carry water.Map ↗
- Village-to-village walkShort sections between Loggos, Fontana and nearby coves work well without committing to a full hike.Map ↗
- Museum of PaxosA compact local-history stop in Gaios, useful for a slower or cloudier hour.Map ↗
- Old Soap FactoryA landmark on the Loggos waterfront that reflects the island’s olive-oil and soap-making past.Map ↗
- Windmills & chapelsSmall ruins and churches turn up throughout the interior; treat them as gentle detours rather than a checklist.Map ↗
06
Antipaxos day
Ridiculously blue water, with lunch somewhere in the middle.
- VrikaShallow, bright water and a sandy beach; usually the easiest first stop.Map ↗
- VoutoumiA broad turquoise bay backed by green slopes, with a seasonal taverna above the beach.Map ↗
- Bella Vista · lunchA hilltop lunch stop above the Antipaxos beaches, with wide views across the water.Map ↗
- MesovrikaA smaller, quieter bay between the two better-known beaches.Map ↗
- Sea taxiThe simple there-and-back option from Gaios; confirm the return time before settling in.Map ↗
- Round-island boat dayCombine Antipaxos with the Blue Caves and west-coast formations when sea conditions allow.Map ↗

Paxos · September 2027Good to know
Frequently asked
What should I wear?
Thursday: smart casual for welcome drinks.
Friday: summer suits and dresses for the wedding day.
Saturday: smart summer swimwear for The Second Wave.
Which airport should I fly to?
Corfu International Airport is the usual gateway. From Corfu, continue to Paxos by ferry or water taxi.
Where should I stay?
Most celebrations will take place near Loggos, so we highly recommend staying close to Loggos.
Do I need a car?
Taxis are scarce on Paxos, so we highly recommend hiring a car or moped. It will make getting between villages, beaches and evening plans much easier.
How will we get to and from the wedding events?
We will release details about transport to and from the wedding events closer to the time.
When should I book?
Accommodation can be limited, especially for larger groups. Booking early is sensible. Ferry schedules can be booked later once September 2027 services are released.
Will there be a ceremony location on the site?
Yes. The ceremony begins at 5pm and we will add the location once it is confirmed.
Are babies and children invited?
Sadly, we won’t be able to accommodate children at the wedding events. If you are travelling with little ones, we can recommend local babysitters if required — please reach out and we’ll share details.
Will this website be updated?
Yes. We’ll keep adding confirmed ferry schedules, event transport, ceremony details and registry information as plans are finalised, so please check back closer to September.
Can we ask you for tips?
Absolutely. Should anyone wish to reach out for tips while planning the trip, please do — we are very happy to help with ideas for beaches, boats, places to stay and getting around.
