that, the UNESCO World Heritage-listed “Old Town” offers a unique scenic
experience given its architecture and general structure which is quite unique.
Day 2 - Sivota – Mourtos
The Ionian
Islands are the wettest of the Greek islands so forget about the typical rugged
rocky coasts of Greece.
The Ionian
Sea will amaze you with its lush forests green hills covered with olive groves,
crystal clear waters and sparkling white beaches. You can find this descriptive
scenery hidden among the Sivota – Mourtos Islands which are located south of
Corfu’s mainland.

visit its highlights, the blue lagoon and the famous Papanikolis cave.

Day 3 – Parga
Parga has
been described as one of the most beautiful villages in Greece and
undoubtingly, as the most beautiful in the Ionian Sea!
With its two
crystal clear bays, each on both sides of the village. It’s famous
Venetian castle and its numerous bars and water sports facilities.
Parga is a
must-see for your summer holidays.
Grab your
hats and sunglasses, put on plenty of sunscreen and prepare to create some
forever-lasting Greek summer memories, at this beautiful, picturesque
destination.
Note: Due to Parga’s undeveloped-port
infrastructure, there is not plenty of available space on the marina, which
means, that in case the gulet does not manage to dock at the port, you will
need to use a water taxi, to reach the shore. The cost for this is not included
in the overall price package.

Parga wine tasting
Day 4 – Antipaxos
The small
island of Antipaxos is a true hidden gem and will be a one-of-a-kind experience
for you.

beaches of Voutoumi and Vrika

have the chance to snorkel in the turquoise waters and feel the pebbles under
your feet

amongst the clifftop and visit one of the three main towns – Gaios, Loggos or
Lakka.
Later in the
night, you dine at a pop-up beachfront tavern, on a private beach off the
public-main coast and admire the sparkling night sky from our gulet’s deck.

included in the initial package price.
Day 5 - Paxos – Gaios

underwater wonders.
