Corfu
Corfu is the second largest island of the Ionian Islands and is close to the Albanian town of Saranda. There is a strait between Saranda and the island, which is 3 to 23 kilometers wide. One of the most interesting facts related to this island is that it is surrounded by three different seas. It is bordered to the west by the Ionian Sea, to the north by the Adriatic Sea and to the south by the Mediterranean. This fact affects the climate of Corfu and makes it unique. Many people say they feel the sea difference on various beaches, although they are so close to each other.
Paxos
The smallest of the Ionian Islands, but the biggest of the islands in the area. Paxos has a very interesting history, as it is believed that Poseidon himself created the island striking and separating it from the Corfu island, so that he and his wife would have a resting place. This could only show that you will have a tranquil and a relaxing adventure there. You will feel as if the world has stopped especially for you and your holiday. We recommend you to visit a smaller island nearby – Antipaxos, which is famous for its wine and its sandy shores.
