Corfu (Gouvia Marina) → Paxos
From the Gouvia Marina in Corfu, cut over the turquoise waves of the Ionian toward Paxos, an emerald island filled with olive farms. Dock at Gaios, a harbor so lovely it feels taken from a storybook—pastel structures, Venetian architecture, fishing boats painted sky-blue. Swim the Blue Caves close to Lakka; their waters sparkle like liquid sapphire; then, at a taverna under a canopy of vines, savor ladotyri cheese drizzled with locally olive oil. Anchor early; Gaios's harbor is small yet enchanted.

Ladotyri cheese tasting at a taverna
Consiglio per l'ormeggio
Gaios town quay is small — anchor early; long stern-to wait in peak. Lakka and Loggos as alternative northern Paxos overnights.
