Corfu to Paxos Route Map

Map of the Ionian Islands showing the ferry route south-south-east from Corfu Town on Corfu to Gaios on Paxos.

Paxos lies a short way south of Corfu, and the crossing between them is one of the gentler interisland hops in the Ionian. For much of the route the boat runs in the lee of Corfu's own coastline before the final open stretch across to Paxos, so it rarely feels like a rough passage even when there is some wind about. Two very different services cover the route: a fast catamaran that gets you across quickly, and a slower conventional ferry that takes its time -- check the schedule box above to see which is sailing when you want to travel.

Departures build through the summer, with sailings spaced through the day at the height of the season and a noticeably quieter timetable either side of it. That makes Corfu to Paxos workable both as a day trip from Corfu Town and as the main way in if you're staying on Paxos itself -- with a good spread of crossings on offer in high season, you're rarely locked into a single departure time.

Hiring a car

Is it worth hiring a car in Corfu?

Yes, particularly if you want to reach beaches and villages away from the main resorts, since the island is one of the largest Ionian islands and buses and taxis only cover the popular routes well. Terrain is hilly in places, so a car with reasonable power helps, and petrol stations thin out in rural areas, so fill up when you can. Compare local suppliers at Discover Cars.

Tips for the Corfu to Paxos ferry

  • Greek ferries do not impose a luggage limit for foot passengers – you can bring as much as you can physically carry, but you must manage it yourself.
  • Keep valuables – wallet, passport, phone – in a small day bag you carry on board; never leave them in checked luggage or in your car on the car deck.
  • Short crossings in summer are often operated by smaller local ferries or water taxis in addition to the main line vessels; ask at the port for all options.
  • Medicines, including seasickness tablets and any prescription drugs, should always be in your day bag, not buried in hold luggage.
  • On frequent short routes, missing one sailing is rarely a disaster – the next ferry is usually not far behind.
