Corfu is one of the most beautiful islands in the Ionian Sea. Locals call it the “Emerald Island” because it’s lush and green and has wonderful waters.
Its history dates back to antiquity. According to Homer, Odysseus arrived here before returning to Ithaca. Over the centuries, Corfu was ruled by many: Venetians, French, and British. That’s why it boasts such beautiful fortresses, “kantounia” (narrow alleys), and mansions that resemble Europe but retain a Greek character. The Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and truly worth getting lost in its alleyways. On the Spianada, the upper square and the central Liston, you’ll see people playing cricket—a rare sight in Greece! Don’t miss Achilleion, the palace of Empress Sissi, who adored Corfu.
Today, Corfu is vibrant and welcoming. It boasts lovely villages, lush landscapes, and beaches for every taste. Try “pastitsada” and “sofrito,” listen to a philharmonic band during festivities, and experience Easter in Corfu—it’s truly unique!
If you want an authentic experience, walk through the Old Town early in the morning or enjoy your coffee at the Liston while people-watching.
Corfu: The Emerald Isle of the Ionian
Corfu, the emerald isle of the Ionian Sea, is one of Greece’s most enchanting destinations. With its rich history, impressive architecture, and breathtaking beaches, it’s an ideal destination for every traveler. If you’re planning a holiday in Corfu, here are the places you shouldn’t miss.
Corfu Old Town: A Living Museum
Corfu’s Old Town is the island’s crown jewel and rightly designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Wander through a labyrinth of narrow alleys (“kantounia”) and put your map away. Just get lost in the little streets and discover the true magic of the old town. You’ll find picturesque balconies, clotheslines, hidden churches, and small cafés with local patrons, as well as charming squares, old mansions, and impressive fortresses that enchant every visitor. Admire the Venetian buildings and visit the Spianada. Don’t miss a stop at the famous Liston, where you can enjoy a coffee overlooking the charming lanes.
What to see & do in the Old Town – check these off your list:
Old Fortress – climb its walls for panoramic views of the Ionian Sea and the town. Many concerts are also held here.
New Fortress – discover its secrets and enjoy cultural events and exhibitions.
St. Spyridon Church – see the most famous church on the island and light a candle. The patron saint of Corfu has his own impressive church in the heart of town.
Coffee at the Liston – sit under the famous arcades, perfect for a coffee or drink, and soak in the unique atmosphere. Built after Paris’s Rue de Rivoli, it’s a meeting point for locals and tourists alike.
Stroll through the kantounia – get lost in the little alleys and discover hidden spots for coffee or a glass of wine. It’s simply magical!
Palace of St. Michael and St. George – visit the Museum of Asian Art.
Spianada Square – walk across the largest square in the Balkans, and if you’re lucky, you might see a cricket match!
Listen to a Philharmonic Band – especially during festivals or Easter. If you hear a band playing, stop and listen—it’s an experience!
Shop for local products – in the many small shops in the alleys you’ll find local goods like olive oil soaps, kumquat, traditional sweets—perfect for gifts.
Dine in a local taverna – In the kantounia you’ll find traditional tavernas. Try local dishes like pastitsada, bianco, sofrito, and pair them with a local wine.
Take photos everywhere – every corner is perfect for holiday snapshots. From pastel houses to blooming courtyards, the Old Town is a photographer’s paradise.
Tips: The best time to stroll through the Old Town is early in the morning or late in the afternoon, when the alleys are cool and the sun shines on the Venetian buildings. If you visit Corfu at Easter, get ready for unique traditions with music, processions, and… pots smashing in the streets!
Mon Repos & Pontikonisi: Two Jewels of Corfu
Mon Repos: A Palace in Nature
Mon Repos is a beautiful palace nestled in a lush garden, built in the 19th century for the British administration. It’s considered the birthplace of Prince Philip of the United Kingdom and later became the summer residence of the Greek royal family. The palace is surrounded by a green park with rare plants and archaeological ruins. A walk in the Mon Repos park is unique: small paths lead you from the palace to the beach, while the view of the Ionian Sea is magical. Today, Mon Repos operates as a museum where you can see period furniture, portraits, and objects that tell the story of Corfu.
Tips: Combine your visit with a relaxing walk in the park. Wear comfortable shoes and bring your camera.
Pontikonisi: The Symbol of Corfu
Pontikonisi is perhaps the most iconic and photographed image of the island. A small green islet that seems to “float” on the sea. It is located right across from the airport and Kanoni. On Pontikonisi sits the Pantokrator Monastery, a small chapel surrounded by cypress trees. You can reach it by boat, which frequently departs from Kanoni or Vlacherna. The view from Kanoni and the Vlacherna Monastery is one of the most photographed in Greece. It’s an ideal spot to enjoy your coffee and watch planes fly low overhead.
Tips: Climb up to Kanoni for the best view and don’t forget to take a photo of Pontikonisi from above. Take a boat trip to the islet.
Paleokastritsa – Legend and Turquoise Waters
Paleokastritsa is famous for its enchanting waters, steep cliffs, myths, and its unique monastery dating back to the 13th century. It’s said that here was the palace of King Alcinous from the Odyssey—the place where Odysseus was shipwrecked before reaching Ithaca! It’s an ideal spot to explore hidden caves and enjoy a swim in its turquoise waters.
What to do in Paleokastritsa:
Discover hidden caves by boat
Take a short boat trip to see sea caves and small secluded bays with crystal-clear waters. Local boatmen organize short tours that are well worth it!
Swim in crystal-clear waters
Paleokastritsa has many small beaches with fine sand or pebbles and waters reminiscent of the Caribbean. Can you handle the cold? They are famous for their cool, clean waters!
Visit the Monastery of the Virgin Mary
At the top of the hill, the historic 13th-century monastery offers stunning views of the Ionian Sea and houses a small museum with Byzantine icons and old ecclesiastical items. Its courtyard is filled with flowers and cats—perfect for peaceful photos.
Explore the underwater world
If you enjoy diving or snorkeling, you’ll find organized centers offering excursions to discover the marine life of the area.
Dine at a taverna with a view
In Paleokastritsa, there are many tavernas perched on the rocks. Enjoy fresh fish or local dishes overlooking the endless blue.
Walk the trails
There are beautiful hiking trails with views of the coves and lush cliffs. Ideal for photos and a bit of exploration away from the crowds.
Tips:
Bring a mask and snorkel.
The waters are clean and full of life—even if you don’t go on an organized dive, it’s worth exploring on your own.
Take a boat ride early in the morning or late in the afternoon. It’s less crowded, the sea is calmer, and the light is perfect for photos in the caves.
Wear water shoes—many beaches have pebbles and water shoes will save you from slipping!
Bring a towel and sunscreen. The beaches are small and sometimes organized, but often there aren’t many sunbeds.
Try fresh fish at a taverna with a view. Many restaurants have balconies above the bay—it’s a special experience to dine with a view of the Ionian.
Climb up to the Monastery for the best view. The ascent is easy and the panoramic view of Paleokastritsa’s bays is unique. Avoid midday when it’s crowded with tour buses—if you want a more peaceful experience, prefer morning or afternoon.
Combine your visit with nearby excursions. It’s worth stopping by the village of Lakones (for the view) or taking short hikes around the bay.
Bonus Tip:
If you’re a couple or traveling with friends, rent your own little boat to see caves and stop wherever you want for a swim. It’s a small luxury that’s worth it!
Plan your transportation in advance. Paleokastritsa has limited parking, especially in August. If you have a car, arrive early.
Canal d’Amour – Corfu’s Romantic Legend
The Canal d’Amour is one of Corfu’s most famous natural attractions, near Sidari in the north of the island. It’s a picturesque cove with impressive sandstone cliffs forming narrow passages and small caves. It’s one of Corfu’s most romantic spots, and legend says that if you swim in its waters, you will find the love of your life.
The legend says that whoever swims in the Canal d’Amour with their partner will stay together forever! That’s why the spot attracts many couples and is perfect for romantic photos.
What to do at the Canal d’Amour:
Swim in the calm, shallow waters between the cliffs.
Take photos on the natural “balconies” of sandstone.
Explore small sea caves and passages.
Enjoy the sun on tiny sandy strips that form between the rocks.
Walk the path above the cliffs for the best view and a romantic sunset.
Tips:
The Canal d’Amour is easily accessible on foot from Sidari.
Visit early in the morning or late in the afternoon for fewer crowds and better light.
Be careful on the rocks – wear proper shoes if you want to climb.
There are tavernas and cafés in the area – perfect for relaxing after your swim.
Fun fact: The name Canal d’Amour was given by French travelers in the 19th century – to this day, it remains the most romantic spot in northern Corfu!
Achilleion – The Palace of Empress Sissi
The famous palace of Empress Elisabeth of Austria (Sissi) is one of the most impressive monuments on the island. Achilleion is one of Corfu’s most famous landmarks and definitely worth a visit. It was built in 1890 for Empress Elisabeth, who loved Greek mythology and the beauty of Corfu. The palace is dedicated to the hero Achilles – hence the name – and features impressive gardens and many statues of Achilles as well as statues of ancient gods and philosophers.
What to see at Achilleion:
Palace interior: Tour the rooms of Sissi and later Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany, see period furniture, paintings, and personal items.
Gardens: Walk through the impressive gardens with panoramic views of the Ionian Sea. Don’t miss the famous statue “Dying Achilles” – a masterpiece depicting the hero wounded.
Photography: Achilleion offers fantastic spots for photos, with statues, gardens, and a unique view toward eastern Corfu.
Tips:
It’s located in the village of Gastouri, about 10 km from Corfu Town.
You can get there by bus, taxi, or organized tour.
Open daily, but check opening hours and tickets, as they may change by season.
There is an entrance fee, which includes access to the gardens and museum.
Combine your visit with coffee or food at the village tavernas.
Bonus Tip: Bring a hat and water if you visit in summer—the gardens are large and the sun is strong!

Bourdeto

Bianco
Fish cooked with lemon, garlic, and potatoes. Milder than bourdeto but just as flavorful.

Musical Tradition: Philharmonic Bands & Kantades
Corfu has one of the richest musical traditions in Greece. It’s no coincidence that it’s called “the island of music.”
Corfu’s Philharmonic Bands
Corfu is the only place in Greece with so many philharmonic bands. The three most historic are:
Corfu Philharmonic Society (“Old”) – Founded in 1840, the oldest.
Mantzaros Philharmonic Society (“New”) – Founded in 1890, very active in local events.
Kapodistrias Philharmonic – Founded in 1980, continues the tradition.
These philharmonic bands play a central role in Corfu’s major celebrations, like Easter and the 25th of March parade.
Kantades
Kantades are a type of Ionian song with Italian influences, sung by male choirs accompanied by guitar or mandolin. Romantic and nostalgic, they are still heard in the alleyways of the Old Town.
Theatre & Opera
Corfu had one of the first opera houses in Greece, the famous San Giacomo Theatre, which operated from the 18th century until World War II. Italian operas were performed there, reflecting Corfu’s close ties to Italian culture. Today, the theatrical and musical tradition continues with performances at the Municipal Theatre of Corfu and other cultural events.
Museums & Cultural Spaces
Corfu is home to some of Greece’s most interesting museums.
Museums to visit:
