Resorts in Corfu island (Kerkyra) Greece
Corfu is among the most beautiful of all the Greek islands, with rolling green hills covered in pines and olive groves, and a coastline surrounded by several fine beaches of golden sand shelving gently into clear turquoise waters. Corfu island was a British Crown Protectorate in the nineteenth century, and it's still very popular with UK holidaymakers. Corfu Town itself is a lively and attractive capital, with delightful Venetian architecture, lots of interesting shopping, and even a cricket pitch! We have chosen resorts here to suit every holiday taste. For lively days and high-energy nightlife, choose Ipsos or Kavos. Quieter, relaxing holidays are to be found in Agios Gordios, Messonghi, Moraitika and Kassiopi, while Sidari and Paleokastritsa are established resorts catering for all types of holidaymakers. |

Sidari has no shortage of places to eat at reasonable prices, shops and supermarkets to cater for all your needs and a good choice of bars. Sidari is still very much a typically Greek resort where families enjoy seeing the kids playing on the beach on the vast expanses of sand.
