Kalamaki Beach

It offers spectacular views out to sea and with no water sports, beach bars or even sunbeds it is the epitome of unspoilt.
Ágios Geórgios Págon
Lying between Cape Arillia and Angelókastro on the northwest shoreline, the beautiful, peaceful Ágios Geórgios Págon is something of a local secret and remains low key even during high season. You can windsurf and scuba in the bay or just float in the clear, clean waters.

Things To Do
Boat Trips
As Corfu is one of the most picturesque and beautiful of all the Greek islands, experiencing it by boat is one of the best ways to get an overview of just how special the beautiful island really is.
Horse Riding
There are lots of ways to explore Corfu, from boat tours and bikes to just getting out and walking around. But few experiences can match taking in the beautiful sights of the island on horseback.
Corfu Trail
The Emerald Isle is home to a riot of nature and you can get up close and personal with it all with a Corfu Trail hike. Although the full route takes several days to complete, it runs from one end of the island to the other which means you can complete a small section without having too venture too far afield. En-route, expect lagoons and mountain summits as well as enough photo opportunities to fill a dozen albums.
