A private speedboat day trip from Corfu that visits Paxos, Antipaxos and the famed Blue Caves — a mix of swimming, snorkeling, sea caves and a short stop in Gaios. Ideal for travelers who want a fast, flexible way to see the Ionian’s clearest waters.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You push off from Corfu's harbor as the town recedes — white houses and cypress-shaded hills shrinking into the heat-hazed horizon. The speedboat cuts the Ionian like a pen, spray tasting of salt and limestone, and the first cliffs of Paxos appear as pale, banded walls browned by sun and wind.
