Just seven miles long and three miles wide,Paxos encapsulates the magical beauty andvariety of the Ionian: over 30 shelteredbeaches on the east coast, dramatic cliffs onthe west, olive trees and tall pines inland,

surrounded by the clearestcrystal waters, and fringed

with caves, grottoesand unpopulated

islands.

About half of the island’s population of 3,000live in the three villages of Gaios, Loggos andLakka, and help create that special sense ofserenity, sociability and relaxation thatcharacterises Paxos.

Take a boat trip to the satellite island ofAntipaxos and for a short while you canexperience a real Robinson Crusoe moment,as you step onto one of the many unspoiltand deserted beaches, and reflect on whatmakes life so precious.
