Avlaki

The place to go in order to avoid tourist masses, relatively quiet, pebbly beach, with many facilities.

Sidari

Avoid a windy day and enjoy its strange rock formations, beautiful landscape and the well-known “Canal d’ Amour” – legend says that if couples in love swim here, they will stay together forever.

Myrtiotissa

Sandy, not organized and the nudists’ favorite spot – comes along with the reputation of being “the loveliest beach in Corfu”

Kalami

Pebbly beach with crystal waters, popular but still unharmed by tourism. The homonymous village used to be the home of British writer Lawrence Durrell (1912-1990), who was inspired by the island to write the account ”Prospero’s Cell”.

Corfu

Long beaches with crystal blue waters, trees, cosmopolitan elegance, makes Corfu one of the most popular Greek islands.

Inland excursions

Check out the lighthouse of Agii Theodoroi (built by the British on a peninsula near Argostoli), the Venetian castle of Agios Georgios and the Monastery of Agios Gerasimos, the island’s patron saint (note that the monastery’s feasts take place on 15/8 and 20/10 – modest dress code is required here).
