A cultural village in Europe in 2004, Paxos is an ideal case for quiet and quality holidays. Lacy shores, underwater caves, small coves, and green hills welcome those lucky enough to find themselves on the island. According to tradition, Paxos was once united with Corfu. But Poseidon grabbed the piece with his trident and detached it so that he could live undisturbed with his love for Amphitrite.
