Antipaxos

Antipaxos is one of the purest and most enchanting stops in the Ionian Sea, a literal paradise for yacht charter enthusiasts. Located just south of Paxos island, this small island is famous for its world-renowned beaches like Voutoumi and Vrika. Its crystal-clear turquoise sea and white sandy shores offer a Caribbean-like atmosphere on blue cruise itineraries. Known for its untouched nature, vineyards, and high sea quality, the local establishments on the shoreline provide guests with a peaceful break accompanied by meals prepared with fresh products.

Logistics & Technical

Anchoring in Antipaxos is all about the "Blue Lagoon" experience. The eastern bays of Vrika and Voutoumi offer sandy bottoms with excellent holding, though they can be crowded with day-trippers. Professional captains recommend staying overnight only in very calm weather, as the bays are open to the north and east. The water is shallow near the shore, making it perfect for a "stern-to" approach with lines to the rocks.

Dining & Nightlife

Gastronomy & Social Life

The island is famous for its boutique vineyards producing excellent local wine. There are a few elevated tavernas above Voutoumi beach that offer world-class views and fresh Ionian seafood. The social life is strictly "sun-drenched"; there is no nightlife here, only the clinking of glasses on yacht decks as the sun sets and the day-boats return to Paxos.

Heritage & Wonders

Culture & Nature

The island’s culture is tied to its land; its vineyards have been cultivated for generations. Nature is the primary architect here—the white limestone cliffs and the lush vegetation meeting the neon sea create a color palette that is unique to the Ionian. It is a place where you can feel the true, wild essence of an uninhabited Greek island.

Concierge Service

Practical Info

Antipaxos has no shops or markets. All provisioning must be done in Gaios (Paxos). However, the beach tavernas are welcoming and can sometimes assist with small needs. It is incredibly safe for children, with very warm, shallow waters. Access is only by boat, making your yacht the primary "concierge" center for your stay.

Personal Insight

Captain's Note

“
"Stay after 6 PM. When the day-boats leave, the neon-blue water becomes yours alone, and the silence of the vineyards is simply intoxicating."
