Lefkimi to Paxos Route Map

Map of the Ionian Islands showing the ferry route south-south-east from Lefkimi to Paxos.

Lefkimi to Paxi takes about 45 minutes with Kamelia Lines, on either the Christa or the Despina P. It is the shortest ferry crossing to Paxi, running south from the bottom of Corfu across a short stretch of the Ionian. Cars are carried, which matters on an island with no airport.

Paxi's port and capital is Gaios, a sheltered harbour screened by two small islets, Agios Nikolaos and Panagia, which give it its lagoon-like look. The island is small and green, all olive groves and limestone coast, and popular with sailors. Boat trips run from Gaios to the sea caves and across to Antipaxos.

The route runs a few times a day in season and drops back sharply in winter; the current timetable and fares are shown below. Since Paxi has no airport, ferries from Lefkimi, Corfu Town and Igoumenitsa are the only ways in.

Tips for the Lefkimi to Paxos ferry

  • The sea temperature in the Aegean ranges from around 15°C in winter to 27–28°C in late summer; falling overboard in winter is a serious emergency.
  • Wheeled suitcases are harder to manage on steep gangways and across uneven quaysides than backpacks; a soft-sided bag with carry handles is a practical compromise.
  • Onboard food prices are higher than onshore – if you are on a budget, bring sandwiches, fruit, and water from a supermarket before you board.
  • Toilets at smaller island ports can be limited and poorly maintained; use facilities at your hotel or a cafe before heading to the port.
  • If your itinerary is time-critical (flight the next day), always choose the conventional slow ferry over the fast catamaran in summer – reliability matters more than speed.
