Gaios on the East coast of Paxos

The island of Paxos is small. For me it's the jewel in the Ionian Crown. Not much to do other than sail, snorkel, stroll through ancient alleyways and wander to a taverna for Ouzo. The place weaves a spell ...

 

 This is the view from our forepeak.

Once a day two tripper boats arrive from Kavos, Corfu - far too big ( in my opinion).  We were entertained this afternoon as they tangled their anchors and spent nearly an hour shunting, shouting and generally causing mayhem in this tiny beautiful harbor - you could hear the collective sigh when they left!

A local day tripper boat to anti Paxos - more our style.

Even more up our street - next time we pass through we'll sail in here, berth to the tiny weeny pontoon ( 2 boats only), or maybe anchor off, have a shower then dance the night away.

These two fly the few metres from the islet opposite our mooring every afternoon ( they wait for the tourists boats to leave) and stroll about the quay chatting away. The sky is alive with larks, swifts, orioles and hawks


Mooring is stern to the quay - no charge.
