An unspoilt interior; oranges, figs and wild pears; a coastline of small coves and limitless beaches; and a capital irresistably Venetian.
Large enough to have several different aspects, the range of Corfu’s appeal extends from the energy of organised resorts to the stillness of serious birdwatching, from sharing a moment of timeless harmony in a taverna across from a white-washed church in a village square to relaxing quietly on a sheltered beach accessible only by boat.
Travellers have been drawn to Corfu for centuries – from the Phoenicians onwards, and perhaps even from the time of Poseidon himself – and its appeal has never diminished. Overlooked by the summit of Mount Pandokrator, the glorious “Emerald Isle” lies before you, a multi-faceted jewel of cypress trees and pine, pastel-coloured houses, olive groves, lemon trees and oranges, encircled by an azure sea.
One day or three day excursions to Albania from Corfu Town can be arranged.
Corfu offers varied nightlife and cuisine, boat hire to find secluded beaches, watersports, an excellent 18 hole golf course and an opportunity to explore an island of diverse beauty.
