\u2013 When to go?<\/strong><\/p>\n

In general, the island is worth experiencing when the hordes of tourists from all over the world have not arrived to admire its beauties. June, until mid-July and early September are the best periods.<\/p>\n

\u2013 What program will you follow:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, forget what you've read on other sites and guides and follow my advice. The beaches on the island that are accessible by car are nothing special. You reach the best beaches by boat. There are two solutions here. The first is to go to the port and get on the tourist boats that go around the island. It's an economical solution, but I don't recommend it. You'll be crammed with a bunch of people and you'll get an idea of the beaches without enjoying it.<\/p>\n

The second solution I suggest is to rent small boat<\/strong>. But you will tell me I don\u2019t have a boat license\u2026 No need! According to the law, for polyester boats with an engine of up to 30 horsepower, a license is not required. So, the first thing you will do as soon as you arrive on the island is to go to the port and book a boat. You will ask which days the weather conditions are favorable (no waves and wind) and you will make your plan. Don\u2019t rent a boat for just one day but for two! One to go around Paxos and the second to go to Antipaxos. The rental offices will also give you a short demonstration of how to handle the boat at the port and you are ready. If your group is 4 to 6 people, the cost is the same as taking the tourist one.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Where will you swim?<\/strong><\/p>\n

1or<\/sup> day<\/u><\/p>\n

So, after renting the boat, grab some supplies (food, water, sea items, etc.) and head southeast. Take your first short dive in the narrow channel between Kaltsonisi<\/strong> and Mongonisi<\/strong> before you go out to sea. Then go west and follow the perimeter of the island towards the North. The scenery is impressive! Large rocks sculpted by the waves and tiny pebble beaches, compose a scene straight out of a tropical island!<\/p>\n

Kaltsonisi - Mongonisi Ferry<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Follow the coastline and wherever you like, drop anchor and swim. First you will come across the arch of Trypitou<\/strong>. Approach with caution because it is quite shallow. Then follow the beaches Light blue<\/strong> and Channel<\/strong>. We liked the Blue one the most. Next is the Ortholith<\/strong>, where you will also see the cave, where, according to testimonies, the submarine "Papanikolis" was hiding during World War II. If there are no waves, try going in!<\/p>\n

Continuing around the island you will find the blue caves! Drop anchor, grab a mask and flippers and enjoy the seabed. The two caves communicate with each other and truly create a unique setting!<\/p>\n
