2Paxos

Paxos is located in the Ionian chain of Greek islands on the mainland’s west coast. Due to its small size and lack of an airport, the island doesn’t really attract package holiday crowds and is still among the hidden gems in Europe.

Reaching the islands entails a flight to Corfu then an hour’s ferry ride. With plenty of connecting flights to Corfu from the mainland and European destinations, Paxos is more accessible than you’d think – and well worth the visit to escape the crowds.
