Ferry Map & Routes to Paxos
Sitting just 14 kilometers south of a major international airport, this tiny Ionian outpost relies entirely on the sea. Kamelia Lines and Joy Cruises are the largest operators running rapid 55-minute passenger shuttles directly into the narrow, fjord-like port of Gaios. Review the ferry map above to find the heavy car ferries departing from the mainland docks of Igoumenitsa if you plan to navigate further south to Lefkada. You can easily leave your rental car behind since the island is barely 10 kilometers long.

Paxos is located south of Corfu in the Ionian Sea. In 2026, primary operators include Kerkyra Lines, Joy Cruises, and Kamelia Lines. The island is also served by the Lefkada Palace for inter-island connections across the Ionian chain.
The New Port (Gaios) handles all incoming ferries and hydrofoils. It is located approximately 1 km from the town center of Gaios.
| Departure Port | Arrival Port | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Corfu Town | Paxos | 55 minutes to 1.5 hours. Hydrofoils provide the fastest passenger-only link. |
| Igoumenitsa (Mainland) | Paxos | 1.5 to 2 hours. This is the primary route for vehicle transport to the island. |
| Lefkimmi (South Corfu) | Paxos | 45 to 50 minutes. A convenient and faster departure point for those in southern Corfu. |
- Nomenclature: Ferry schedules often list the island under the names “Paxi” or “Paxoi.”
- Antipaxos Trips: Local taxi boats depart from the Gaios waterfront every hour for the short 15-minute trip to the neighboring island of Antipaxos.
