Palaeokastritsa is probably the most recognizable area of Corfu, offering unique beaches, turqoise waters and a spectacular view. Palaeokastritsa has many restaurants, bars and shops. “TO DO LIST” a boat trip to the caves (optional). Paleokastritsa is arguably the most famous picturesque villages of the island of Corfu, located 25 km northwest of Corfu Town. The word Paleokastritsa literally means old little castle, named after Angelokastro, a Byzantine castle that stands on a hill over the village. This cosmopolitan resort stretches along a coastal road around stunning bays and a picturesque harbor where the excursion boats depart for the nearby, isolated beaches. At the end of the road, right after the main harbor, is the Monastery of the Virgin Mary that overlooks the village. The monastery hosts an interesting collection of post-Byzantine icons, books and other objects. There, you will discover precious icons from the 15th century.
Glyfada sandy beach is one of the most popular beaches on Corfu island. The beach has shallow waters, has been awarded the Blue Flag, it's fully equipped and there is also the opportunity for water sports. It's a stunning sandy beach with several bars, tavernas and restaurants.

About Corfu
Corfu is a green Ionian island off north-west Greece, with a Venetian old town, olive groves, rocky coves and a taste of French and British history.
Corfu Town, on the east coast, is listed by UNESCO for its Venetian, French and British layers, with narrow lanes of tall pastel houses between two Venetian fortresses. The Liston arcade, modelled on a Parisian street, runs along the Spianada, a huge square where cricket is still played, and the old British palace there now holds a museum of Asian art. The tiny islet of Vlacherna and Pontikonisi, Mouse Island, sit off the airport runway.
Top-ranked sights in Corfu: Old Fortress (Palaio Frourio), Kanoni, Paleokastritsa.
