From Sivota, Paxos and Antipaxos are an easy day trip by boat. In one day you see turquoise beaches, sea caves and the picturesque little harbours of Paxos — and you’re back at your villa in the evening.
How the trip works
Organised cruise
In summer, organised trips leave Sivota harbour daily, usually between 9:00 and 10:00, and last about 8 hours. They typically stop for a swim at Antipaxos and allow free time on Paxos.
Private boat with skipper
For groups or families who want their own schedule, there are private cruises by RIB or sailing boat, for half a day or a full day. You avoid the crowds and stop wherever you like. See also our guide to boats in Sivota.
What you’ll see
- Antipaxos: the small island with turquoise water, known for its beaches (Voutoumi, Vrika).
- The sea caves of Paxos: on the west coast, when the sea allows.
- Gaios: the harbour of Paxos, for a stroll, lunch and coffee.
Practical tips
- Trips depend on the weather; in strong wind the route may change or the trip may be cancelled.
- Book a few days ahead in July and August.
- Bring sunscreen, a hat, a snorkelling mask and cash for small purchases.
- If you get seasick easily, take something before departure.
