Corfu holidays deliver sandy beaches by the bucketload, Instagrammable landscapes and a capital that's bursting with sightseeing ops.

Sand and scenery

Corfu’s got the beach department covered, with plenty of sand and pebble stretches right by the Ionian Sea. Pretty olive groves and cypress trees take over as you head inland, plus you’re never far from a bit of history if you’re seeking a little culture. Here to soak up the party vibes? Head to Corfu Town and Kavos for livelier nights.

UNESCO rated

Corfu Town has plenty of cultural hotspots to keep you inspired. The old town’s earned its UNESCO status thanks to its castles and maze of interwoven lanes. The Old Venetian fortress takes pride of place on a peninsula overlooking the city, with the New Venetian Fortress within eyeshot above the rooftops. Plus, once you start exploring the tangle of narrow streets, you’ll find yourself sucked in by cafes and restaurants for hours on end.

Old and new island

There’s no mistaking Corfu’s identity as a traditional Greek island – for starters, you’ll find the local food on the menu in most foodie spots. Plus, the hotels and tavernas pride themselves on providing classically warm Greek hospitality. More modern spots, like Sidari and Gouvia, are the places to go if tradition is less of your vibe.
