Arriving into Corfu Airport puts you just a short ferry ride away from the idyllic Ionian island of Paxos. With its picturesque harbour towns, crystalline waters and rugged coastal terrain, Paxos makes for the perfect Greek island escape. Hiring a scooter or quad bike is the best way to explore its winding coastal roads and hillside trails. Base yourself in the vibrant harbour town of Gaios, where you can wander the pastel-coloured Venetian streets and sample fresh seafood at the waterfront tavernas. Then set off to discover Paxos' secluded coves and beaches. Ride south to Glyfada Beach, famous for its unique rock formations and electric blue waters. Stop en route at the seaside village of Loggos, with its bohemian cafés and traditional cream, pink and green houses. Venture inland through olive groves to reach the quaint inland village of Magazia. Or head north along the coast to sleepy Lakka, grabbing lunch at one of the family-run tavernas overlooking the bay. For spectacular sunset views, ride up to the Byzantine castle overlooking Gaios. With your own wheels, you can also easily explore Paxos' neighbouring islands. Take a short ferry hop over to the car-free haven of Antipaxos to enjoy crystal clear waters and powder soft sands. Or ride an hour south to Lefkada island and its renowned beaches. Whether you opt for laidback beach days or action-packed adventures cruising the coastline, motorcycle and scooter hire gives you the freedom to discover Paxos' hidden coves and experience the island like a local. Avoid the tourist crowds and create your own Ionian island itinerary - just don't forget to stop at those ocean view tavernas along the way!
