After taking over your boat, depending on the time of your arrival, you can visit Corfu town (7 km. away), rest, go for a swim or -time permitting- set sails.

Day 2 Sivota (mainland Greece-24nm)
This is the longest leg (24 miles), yet, with the usual NW breeze in the area, it should be a pleasant downwind sail. 
Care should be taken to avoid the sandbanks extended from Lefkimi Cape -keep a good distance from the Cape.

Day 3  Lakka Bay  (Paxos island - 12 nm)
Approaching the entrance to the bay the waters are turquoise and a number of small white beaches surround you.  Most of the time during July/August the village is crowded and mooring on the small quay is difficult, but the bay is secluded and there is anchoring room for everyone.  Going ashore with the dinghy has its own charm.  Coming back to the boat later, after a good dinner and a few drinks is a different story...  For sure unforgettable.

Day 4  Port Gaios (Paxos island - 7 nm)
A relaxing day, as the distance between the ports is only 7 miles.  A good idea is to sail around the island and explore the caves of the western coast.  A visit to the famous sandy beach of Anti-Paxos is also an excellent idea to complete the day.  In the evening the cosmopolitan town of Gaios offers it's hospitality and night life.
