Platanos Mooring
Platanos is a small mooring on Paxos where you tie up stern-to the quay, with the quiet village of Platanos right on your doorstep. The setting is classic Ionian — olive groves rolling down to the water, unhurried and genuinely off the beaten track compared to busier spots on the island. Keep your stern a few metres off the pier to protect your rudder, and use rat guards on your lines. It's a simple, no-frills stop, but the surroundings more than make up for it.
