Detailed Itinerary by days
Day 1Corfu (Gouvia Marina) - Paxos
From the Gouvia Marina in Corfu, cut over the turquoise waves of the Ionian toward Paxos, an emerald island filled with olive farms. Dock at Gaios, a harbor so lovely it feels taken from a storybook—pastel structures, Venetian architecture, fishing boats painted sky-blue. Swim the Blue Caves close to Lakka; their waters sparkle like liquid sapphire; then, at a taverna under a canopy of vines, savor ladotyri cheese drizzled with locally olive oil. Anchor early; Gaios's harbor is small yet enchanted.

Day 2Paxos - Antipaxos
A little trip to Antipaxos, where the beaches compete with the Caribbean. Drop anchor at Voutoumi Bay; its cerulean shallows and sugar-white sand call for a lazy floating day. Spot darting fish, climb to a hillside vineyard for a drink of fresh Verdea wine, then snorkel above seagrass meadows. Local secret: The sole taverna on the island offers lobster pasta deserving of the sail by itself.

Day 3Antipaxos - Parga
Sail east to Parga, a treasure on the mainland where candy-colored homes ascend toward a Venetian castle. Explore Valtos Beach, its golden arc lapped by soft waves, then ascend to the castle ruins for views of the Ionian Sea at sunset. Dinner calls for Saganaki shrimp on a waterfront table, the harbor lights flickering like fireflies.

Day 4Parga - Sivota
Slide south from Sivota, a horseshoe bay surrounded by cypress trees. Swim the Blue Lagoon; its waters are so pure you will see your shadow on the seabed; then, land in the village for bourdeto, a local specialty—a spicy fish stew. Sip a mastiha cocktail as yachts shine under the amber heavens in evening tones.

Day 5Sivota - Plataria
Head north to Plataria, a tiny fishing community on the edge of the continent. Anchor in the still bay; lapping waves and goat bells are the only sounds there. Lunch at a family taverna on fasolada, or bean soup, then paddleboard to Sykia Cave, a sea tunnel where sunshine gold-painted walls. For panoramic views of Corfu's silhouette, hike the neighboring olive grove walk.

Day 6Plataria - Corfu
Retrace your steps to Paleokastritsa, where legend holds Odysseus shipwrecked. Return to Corfu. Swim in the cobalt waves of Agios Spiridon Beach, then sail into Old Port of Corfu Town. Sample kumquat liqueur and hunt Venetian masks as you stroll the arcades of the Liston. Sofrito, garlicky veal, in a courtyard taverna accompanied by accordion music marks farewell meal.

Day 7Corfu - Check-out
One farewell espresso at Café Liston, its Habsburg-era grace an homage to Corfu's varied soul. Walk the Spianada Square, where players of cricket play under the Old Fortress, then pick a jar of thyme honey from the market. Because Corfu never really lets you leave, set off with salt-streaked hair, a camera roll of Ionian blues, and a promise to come back.
