Why visit Paje?

Paje is especially suited to kitesurfing, digital nomads and beach cafés. A pre-booked driver is useful when arriving with luggage, travelling at night or combining island stops.

  • Kitesurfing beach
  • Cafés and beach restaurants

Practical local advice

Tides strongly change the beach during the day; ask activity providers for the best time.

Times vary with traffic, weather, road works and the exact hotel entrance. Add your flight, accommodation and luggage details when booking.

Make a day of it

Ask for a return ride, waiting time or several stops in the booking notes. Attraction, boat, guide and restaurant fees are separate unless confirmed.
