Located on the northwest coast of Corfu, Paleokastritsa is a mesmerizing beach that is sure to leave you spellbound. As you approach the coast, you'll be welcomed by crystal-clear waters that glisten in the sunlight. The beach is a mix of pebbles and sand, providing the perfect spots for lounging and soaking up the sun.
This spot is one of the most famous and frequently visited areas by tourists, so don't be surprised if it's busy. Nevertheless, it's a place not to be missed if you're in the area. The beach is small and sandy with crystal clear water, and there's even a tunnel where you can swim under the rocks.
The long horseshoe-shaped bay in northwest Corfu, also known as Agios Georgios Pagon, is about a 45-minute drive from Corfu Town. The beach is sandy and pebbly with calm and clear waters—great for swimming. There are plenty of sunbeds for rent and water sports amenities, including a boat taxi to the popular Porto Timoni Beach nearby.
Barbati Beach is considered to be one of the cleanest beaches in all of Corfu. Even though it is a pebble beach, it offers warm and clear water with magnificent views of the surrounding mountains. Do not let the lack of sand discourage you from visiting Barbati Beach to relax. The shallow and clean sea makes it a safe spot for both adults and children to enjoy a swim in the ocean.
Porto Timoni is a popular day trip destination located near Afionas. It is a double beach that is loved for its seclusion, lush green hills, and clear waters that are perfect for snorkelling. In 2018, it became the most Instagrammable beach on the island, making it very busy during the summer season. There are two ways to get to the beach: you can take a boat or pedalo from Agios Georgios Pagon, or embark on a 20-minute downhill hike from Afionas.
The beach is surrounded by mountains and has a beautiful combination of sand and rocks. It's perfect for tourists and children with crystal clear water. Rent sunbeds and umbrellas from beach bars and eateries. Explore the local area to find charming tea shops, cocktail gardens, and nice restaurants. Parking can be challenging, so it's recommended to leave your car on the main road and walk down to the beach.
La Grotta is an incredible place that boasts breathtaking views and hosts DJ parties during the summer. It's not your typical beach; rather, it's a small rocky bay located on the way to Paleokastritsa's main beach. The bay has stunning emerald waters that are perfect for swimming, snorkelling, and diving. One section of the bay is also great for cliff jumping.
Marathias Beach is one of the best beaches in Corfu. To summarise, one part can be less crowded during peak season, but it's still a popular destination with plenty of great places to eat and drink. The beach is free of rocks, even when entering the sea, and you can rent sun loungers and umbrellas at a reasonable price.
Messonghi Beach is a beautiful sand and fine gravel-filled seashore located near the homonym village in Corfu. It is famous for its warm, crystal-clear waters that are perfect for families with kids. The shallow seabed filled with fine sand adds to the charm of this beach.
