Road, parking & final approach
Choose by how easy the full journey really is — not just by whether a road exists. We separate the drive, parking and the final walk so you know what to expect before you leave.

Erimitis is one of the most dramatic natural landscapes on Paxos. The beach was formed in 2008 after a landslide on the western cliffs. Access by land involves driving toward the Magazia area and completing the final section on foot via a steep downhill path. The shore is pebbly and the water becomes deep quickly. There are no beach bars, sunbeds or other organised facilities, so bring water, food and everything you may need. Extra care is recommended when the sea is rough.
