Forget the scorched, rocky landscapes you might associate with Greece. Corfu is known as the “Emerald Jewel of the Ionian Sea”. It is a lush Mediterranean dream blanketed with millions of olive trees and a blissful mix of bays and beaches, perfect for relaxing holidays. It is a place where Venetian flair meets Greek soul; just think of traditional town squares, pastel-hued mansions, hidden mountain villages, and a quirky love of cricket left over from British rule. Whether you are chasing the legendary nightlife of Kavos or the boutique charm of Kassiopi, Corfu is calling you!
Every type of traveller will love Corfu. From the shallow, safe waters of Acharavi for families to the romantic sunset cocktails at Loggas Beach for couples, this island is a versatile paradise. Beach lovers must visit the picturesque Paleokastritsa for crystal-clear snorkelling or swim through the Canal d'Amour in Sidari, where legend says wedding bells follow! To explore something historic, visit the UNESCO-listed Corfu Old Town. Wander the Venetian kantounia (narrow alleys) or sip wine along the Paris-inspired Liston Promenade. Read More
Corfu is also known as a foodie’s goldmine. If you are on a diet, ditch it and indulge in delicious sofrito (veal in garlic sauce) or spicy pastitsada. Buy a pint at local prices, and don’t forget to try the local kumquat liqueur.
Feeling active? Hike the Corfu Trail or take a boat to the neon-blue caves of Paxos and Antipaxos. For a family win, Aqualand, which is one of the largest water parks in Europe, never fails to impress.
Thinking about the ideal time to visit Corfu? Well, it is a year-round destination with toasty Ionian island weather. Whether you are after long, sunny days and warm water between May and October, or prefer the blooming wildflowers of April and May, Corfu looks spectacular. September to November is the best time to skip the crowds and explore wild landscapes, empty beaches, and charming villages.
