Greece
Paxos & Antipaxos
Tiny green islands south of Corfu where olive groves meet water so turquoise it looks painted. Lakka, Loggos and Gaios are three harbours you'll never want to leave.

Local travel tips

- Day-trip boats from Corfu fill Antipaxos by noon; go early or stay overnight.
- Bring cash — some tavernas on Antipaxos don't take cards.
