Step aboard the Vicky-F, the iconic boat featured in 'Maestro in Blue' on Netflix, and experience the original cruise from Parga to Paxos and Antipaxos. Enjoy a special curated day of beautiful swimming, natural sightseeing and village exploring — guided by generations of experience, and a heartfelt connection to the sea and stories of the Ionian.
Your journey begins in Parga as you cruise towards the magical island of Antipaxos, passing the stunning natural landscapes of the Ionian coast. Keep an eye out for dolphins along the way!
With its enchanting turquoise waters and soft sandy shores, cruise by the famous Voutomi Beach, often referred to as the “Blue Lagoon” beach. We will anchor directly to its left, or at Mesovrika Beach to its right, where you can enjoy a relaxing swim in the beautiful crystal-clear sea for up to 1 hour. *Note: there is no disembarkation on the island or on the beach itself as boats cannot enter this area, but you can swim to the shore if you wish!
Next, explore the legendary Blue Caves of Paxos and the striking 'Ortholithos' up close by boat. If weather allows it, we will enter the cave for a truly magical experience. Then, cruise below the spectacular 'Tripitos Arch', one of Greece’s most stunning natural landmarks — a natural rock arch that is actually part of a collapsed sea cave, over 20 meters high at its peak and one of the highlights for anyone traveling to Greece. The Vicky is one of the only passenger boats that can stop below the arch itself — bring your camera!
Finally, arrive in Gaios, the vibrant capital of Paxos to shop, dine and swim. Enjoy 2.5 hours to explore the town, enjoy lunch or sweets at a waterfront café, and browse handmade jewelry, local olive oils, and artisan wares. If you feel like a final swim, walk just 250m from the Port to pebbled Giana Beach.
Departure from Gaios at 4.30 pm via the canal — a unique route for Vicky F. Cruise back to Parga with warm memories and to enjoy a stunning sunset!
