About Magazia
Discover Magazia
One of the oldest settlements on Paxos, Magazia sits in the green heart of the island on the old road between Gaios and Lakka. Stone houses, centuries-old olive groves and a slower pace, with the west-coast cliffs and the east-coast coves a short drive away.

Halfway along the island: Gaios, Lakka and Loggos are all a short drive away.
Sunset at Erimitis
The west-coast cliffs of Erimitis, the island's favourite sunset spot, are reached from the village.
Olive-grove calm
Homes set among old olive trees, with space, privacy and quiet nights.
Village life
A bakery, a small market, a traditional kafeneio and tavernas, open to locals and guests alike.

Life in Magazia
Magazia is Paxos away from the harbours. The village follows the old road through the middle of the island, with a bakery, a small market, a traditional kafeneio and a few tavernas where the day moves at island pace. Around it, settlements such as Platanos, Fountana and Anemogiannatika sit among olive trees that have been tended for generations.
From here the whole island is close. Head west through the olive groves to Erimitis, where sheer white cliffs drop into the sea and the sunset is the finest on Paxos; head east to the pebble coves below; or drive to the harbours of Gaios, Lakka or Loggos for dinner by the water.
