1.Day Cruise to Paxos, Antipaxos, & the Blue Caves

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 4,800 reviews · 7 - 11 hours · from $58Our pick

Sail from Corfu to the Blue Caves, swim for about an hour in the clear waters off Antipaxos, then spend two hours in Gaios. The modern boat has a bar, Wi-Fi, clean toilets, and multilingual audio guides. English-speaking hosts such as Theo keep the ride lively, especially on the return trip.

“This was a really fun activity! The staff was excellent, very funny, accommodating and did a great job educating on the different sites we saw. They were also clear on their instructions for departure when we stopped for swimming and into town. There was food provided on board that was reasonably priced, if you are getting a drink I enjoyed the Corfu spritz. I would recommend getting on the boat early to secure a good spot because even in the off season the boat was very full. The stop in Gaios was a good amount of time, if you are eating I suggest doing that first as the restaurants get…”

Guides such as Maria, Elena, and Kamilla lead multilingual commentary, while the return trip may include music and Greek dancing.

“This boat tour was PER-FECT ! I wouldn’t change a thing. We departed from Benitses Port, it was approximately 1h30 to Paxos. When we arrived to Lakkas, we had time (2h) to enjoy the beach before all the other boats arrived, and time to explore the city a little bit. Then we went on the boat again to the blue caves (we saw 2!), and then went to Antipaxos for a beautiful swim in the clear waters. During all the time on the boat, we had the chance of having a guide that talked greek/ english/german/ italian! It was super nice. Truly an amazing tour that anyone visiting Corfu should…”

Bring water, sunscreen, and snorkeling gear.

“The tour was better than expected. We chose the pickup option from Zakynthos town that lasted about an hour forty five minutes. The bus driver was super careful and drove slowly to the marine. The captain had amazing energy which made the ride that much better. There were three 30 minutes which was of course the highlight of the trip. 10/10 would recommend for anyone.”

“10/10 experience, would strongly recommend! Free flowing drinks the whole time, a nice little fruit plate for each guest, good amount of time to swim at each location! Some of the boat is shaded, we got lucky and were assigned a spot that was in the shade most of the time, but would have been HOT if you ended up in the sun the whole time - that was the only downfall.”

The sight of the turtles was an absolute bonus and the Keri Caves stunning - great driving skills for that 360° turn 👏 Marofonisi beach was beautiful and great trip all round. Thanks to all.”

Saw so many amazing things like baby goats in the cliffs and the perimeter of the Naxos island and the beautiful beaches of Koufonisi. Those who love an adventure would die for this experience, and I specifically recommend the boat and crew of Mikros Kosmos”
