Do you need a get away this coming summer holiday season? Do you crave for some peaceful time on a beach away from the crowds? Do you seek pebbles and stones instead of sand with crystal clear waters? If your answer is yes then you can try the relatively unexplored but beautiful beaches on Paxos. Paxos has many beaches but they are not just beaches with translucent waters. The beaches on Paxos are also voted one of the top twenty great escapes by most leading travel magazines.

The island of Paxos is one the smallest islands of the Ionian chain of Greek Islands that lie off the western coast of mainland Greece. Paxos is just south of Corfu and has a rich cultural heritage and a very colorful history. Legend has it that Paxos and its surrounding islands were created when Poseidon, the Greek God, delivered a blow from his powerful Trident to the southern tip of Corfu, which floated and resulted in the formation of Paxos. He created Paxos as a resting haven and a secret love nest for him and his mistress Lady Amphitrite whenever they needed to get away.
