Corfu boasts an impressive array of beaches, ranging from bustling, well-maintained sandy shores to serene, isolated spots perfect for those seeking tranquility. With thirty Blue Flag-awarded beaches stretching across 217 km of stunning coastline, surrounded by lush forests, there’s no shortage of breathtaking scenery.

Some popular options include Halikounas, a sprawling sand dune with ample space and a kite surfing school, Kalamaki, a shallow beach ideal for families and swimming beginners, and Glyfada, which offers a lively atmosphere, gorgeous scenery, and water sports. Whether you’re after a relaxing day by the sea or an action-packed adventure, Corfu has it all.

Porto Timoni
Porto Timoni is a double beach near Afionas village on the west coast of Corfu. Known for its stunning scenery, including its turquoise sea and towering green hills, it features two bays facing Agios Georgios and Mathraki island. The beach can be accessed by foot from Afionas village or by boat from surrounding resorts.

Visitors should come prepared with sturdy footwear as the paths to the beach are narrow and rocky. No amenities are available, so bring your own food, water, and sun protection. The area also includes the cape of Akra Arilla with Neolithic period excavations and another rocky beach. The ascent back to the village can be challenging during the hot hours without any shade.
