Take a trip to Corfu on your Greece Vacation
Corfu, a gem in the Ionian Sea just off the Albanian coast, beckons to travellers as a lush and vibrant Greek island. Unlike some of its peers, Corfu boasts a captivating emerald landscape, making it a haven for nature lovers. Its stunning coastline is full of beaches, each offering a unique slice of paradise.
Agios Stefanos, a long, sandy stretch nestled in a picturesque fishing village, is cradled by gentle hills and olive groves, providing a serene escape. Not far from Corfu Town, Glyfada allures both families and a younger crowd with its golden sands and inviting waters. Agios Georgios, a tranquil resort, rests at the foot of panoramic rocky cliffs, providing the perfect backdrop for water sports enthusiasts. Meanwhile, Kavos offers a vibrant nightlife and lively atmosphere.
The old town of Corfu is a UNESCO World Heritage site, preserving a tapestry of historical influences. As you meander through its narrow cobblestone streets, you'll uncover traces of Italian aesthetics in its architecture, complete with stairways and vaulted passages. The heart of the town is Spianada, an expansive square adorned with 19th-century French-style architecture, flourishing trees, spacious paths, inviting benches, a charming bandstand, ornate fountains, and monuments that whisper tales of the past.
Stroll down The Liston, a street adorned with galleries and archways reminiscent of Paris' Rue de Rivoli, where an array of coffee shops and restaurants tempts you. Nearby, a 15th-century fortress stands tall, complemented by an imposing cathedral and the grandeur of St. Michael and George Palace, surrounded by enchanting gardens.
