PANAGHIA MONASTERY
Read moreThis monastery, on an islet, is mainly used as a central stage for a major celebration celebrated each year on August 15. Historically, the existing monastery seems to have been built on the site of an old Christian church. It is mentioned in some writings of 1686 as already old and in ruins. It has probably since been restored by the Vellianitis family. In 1720, a monastery composed of ten monks was created, whose income was considerable. August 15 is an important holiday and a beef soup is offered to the faithful.
FORTRESS OF AGHIOS NIKOLAOS
Read moreThis islet is surmounted by a 15th century Venetian fortress that can be visited only on request. In 1423, the local Venetian lord Adam II San Ippolito asked the Venetian Senate for permission to build a castle - at his own expense - to protect the small island complex from piracy. Permission was granted and the castle was built. Some fortifications, cannons and two churches remain today.

PAXOS CLASSIC CRUISES
Read morePaxos is best explored from the coast. The excursions, without going very far, are quickly spectacular, with magnificent blue caves and stops in places you'll never forget, and of course swimming breaks at every stop. Ask for the program before you go up. Some of the trips include a nice package with a real barbecue on the water (some grilled meats and salads). Captain Giannis is very friendly and welcoming. You'll need: mask, snorkel and flippers (not supplied).
