Welcome to Western Corfu
Corfu’s western shoreline boasts some of the island’s most spectacular scenery, its prettiest villages and finest beaches. No coastal road connects the many sandy coves that nibble into the towering cliffs along its central stretch, so sightseers have to choose their targets wisely. Paleokastritsa in the north has a great beach, a beautiful monastery and fine hiking; Pelekas is a delightful hilltop village; and Agios Gordios in the south is a backpackers’ haven with a superb beach.
