Cosied up between a tranquil beach and leafy mountains, a holiday to Barbati sums up all that's wild and wonderful about Greece.
Queen of Corfu
Barbati, a village on Greece's island of Corfu, is the type that demands to be noticed. Turquoise waters lap the soft white shores, and a background of mountains boasts rugged good looks. This coastal town has a lot to be proud of, from the powdery main beach to tavernas that'll make you cry opa.
East-coast champ
Barbati's a winner through and through – it holds the title for the best beach on Corfu's east coast. The glistening white shores are only a 10-minute walk from the village centre, so you can pop down for a swim after your morning cappuccino. Once you're there, hire an umbrella and lounger and laze it up for as long as you like.
Home to history
Skip to the island capital of Corfu Town to get your history fix. You'll find two Ottoman-era fortresses, over three dozen churches and French-inspired 19th-century architecture in the swanky Liston. At the end of the day, wind down with a summer spritz at a bistro along the old town's charming lanes.
