Corfu Town
A really beautiful city, the Capital of the island of Corfu, with strong Venetian, French and English influence, is itself a unique destination. Esplanade, a large and beautiful square, is the largest in the Balkans. If you walk in it, you will admire many beautiful buildings and within the small alleys you will find many small souvenir and trade shops. Finally, you must not forget, since you got there, to taste the famous local dish “pastitsada”.
Pontikonissi, Corfu
One of the most famous sights of Corfu is this green rock that got its name from its shape. It looks like a mouse. In Pontikonissi there is a church dedicated to the Transfiguration of Sotiros.
In order to get there, where the visit is short-term in order to protect the natural environment, you will begin across from the cannon, with the boats you’ll find there . Even if we fail to walk, it is worth making the circumnavigation of the island with a boat.
Paleokastritsa, Corfu
An area of Corfu, known worldwide for its natural beauty. The green waters are joined by the gray rocks, creating a unique image. The area is about twenty minutes from the town of Corfu and is highly developed, since there are so many options for accommodation, food and fun. From the first moment, Paleokastritsa will attract your attention!
Kassiopi, Corfu
Picturesque village in the north of the island with a beautiful beach. It lies about 40 kms from Corfu town. The beach is well organized and in recent years a lot of people visit it. Cassiopi has tourist infrastructure for both hospitality and entertainment, as for the famous cuisine of Corfu.
Ipsos, Corfu
One of the most famous beaches of the island, just 15 km from Corfu town. This is a very well organized tourist area with many options for accommodation and entertainment.
The beach is sandy and there is a physical infrastructure for water sports. We highly recommend a walk by the sea while the sun goes down!
