Private Sailing Cruise to Paxos and Antipaxos

Gaios Harbor – Scenic Departure & Return Point

Your journey begins and ends in the charming harbor of Gaios, one of the most picturesque ports in the Ionian Sea.

As you depart, you’ll navigate through a narrow, sheltered channel formed by the small islands of Panagia and Agios Nikolaos, which protect the harbor and create calm, crystal-clear waters. The colorful waterfront venetian houses, traditional boats, and relaxed atmosphere offer a beautiful introduction to Paxos.

At the end of your cruise, returning to Gaios is equally special, with warm light reflecting on the water and the lively promenade welcoming you back.

This stop is part of the sailing experience and offers a scenic start and finish to your journey.

Discover one of the most breathtaking and unique landmarks of Paxos — the spectacular Tripitos Arch, a natural rock formation rising dramatically above the crystal-clear waters of the Ionian Sea.

Formed over centuries by the collapse of a sea cave and continuous erosion from wind and waves, this impressive stone arch stands more than 20 meters high, creating a natural bridge between the cliffs.

Located on the wild west coast of Paxos, Tripitos Arch offers stunning panoramic views of the coastline and nearby Antipaxos, making it one of the island’s most photogenic and unforgettable spots.

Accessible mainly by boat, this hidden gem is a highlight of any cruise around Paxos, allowing you to admire its dramatic beauty from the sea — or even get close enough for incredible photos.

Whether you’re exploring secluded caves, swimming in turquoise waters, or simply enjoying the scenery, a stop at Tripitos Arch is a must for anyone looking to experience the raw, natural beauty of the Ionian.

Just a short sail from Paxos lies the stunning island of Antipaxos — a true paradise known for its unreal turquoise waters and natural, unspoiled charm.

Often compared to the Caribbean, Antipaxos is famous for its crystal-clear sea, white pebble beaches, and vibrant shades of blue that feel almost unreal. While sparsely populated, the island is home to a handful of private villas, traditional vineyards, and a few seasonal tavernas, maintaining a peaceful and exclusive atmosphere.

Your experience here is all about the water.

Drop anchor in iconic bays like Voutoumi Beach or Vrika Beach, where you can swim, snorkel, or simply relax in some of the clearest waters in Greece. The seabed remains visible even at several meters depth, creating a natural swimming pool effect.

Whether you dive straight into the sea, float under the sun, or enjoy a drink onboard surrounded by endless shades of blue, Antipaxos is without doubt the highlight of any cruise in the Ionian.

Located on the northeast coast of Antipaxos, Voutoumi Beach is widely considered one of the most beautiful beaches in Greece — and once you arrive, it’s easy to see why.

Famous for its striking contrast of white pebbles, lush green hills, and unbelievably turquoise waters, Voutoumi looks almost unreal. The sea here is exceptionally clear and calm, with visibility reaching several meters below the surface, making it perfect for swimming and snorkeling.

Approaching by boat is part of the magic.

As you enter the bay, the water shifts through endless shades of blue — from deep sapphire to bright, almost glowing turquoise — creating a natural swimming pool effect that invites you straight in.

Whether you jump into the refreshing waters, float under the sun, or simply take in the scenery from the deck, Voutoumi Beach offers a truly unforgettable Ionian experience.
