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.

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.
