Which Greek Island Blog

Agios Stephanos

Agios Stephanos beach, sometimes called San Stefanos, is located on the north west corner of the island. The beach is over a mile long, has soft sand and shallow water making it perfect for little ones. Although pretty popular it never feels crowded.

Paleokastritsa

Paleokastritsa is a fairly small bay belonging to the village of the same name in the north west of Corfu. It's a popular resort so the beach gets packed in the summer months but it also means it has everything including sunbeds, tavernas, water sports and more.

Agni Bay

Agni Bay is an unspoiled shingle and sand beach on the north east of the island. It has a steep, narrow, winding road heading down to the bay with a car park at the bottom. There are three tavernas on Agni Bay, each one offering free sunbeds.

Pelekas

Pelekas beach is large and sandy and never feels over crowded. It has calm waters that stay shallow a fair way out making it great for kids as they can safely build sandcastles, dig a hole in the sand or play in the shallow waters without fear of it suddenly dropping off.

Agnos

Agnos is an organised beach with loungers and a taverna that's on the north coast just west of Roda. It's sandy and shelves gently into the sea which makes it great for families as little ones can play safely in the shallows, just watch out for strong waves.

Sidari

Sidari is a long sandy beach on the north coast, as Sidari is one of the most popular resorts on the island the beach is busy with lots of sun loungers, tavernas, water sports, pedalo hire and ample parking. It's great for kids as the water stays shallow.

Astrakeri

Astrakeri is on the north coast of Corfu between Roda and Sidari. It's a large rustic beach with minimal facilities, it's mainly sand but with some pebbles in places, the water is shallow which means it’s ideal for kids but it does drop steeply once you get further out.

Small Nissaki

Small Nissaki is a tiny pebble beach, there’s a single taverna perched on the rocks above which is the perfect spot to enjoy the views. Small Nisskai is good for kids as it’s a sheltered bay so there’s not too much current or winds but it does get deep.

Avlaki

Avlaki beach is in the north of Corfu, between Agios Stefanos and Kassiopi, it's a quiet pebble beach and the sea is clear making it the perfect spot for snorkelling. There are often stronger winds in the north so you may find the sea can be a little choppy.

Benitses

Benitses is a sand and pebble beach on the east coast, about 15-20 minutes south of Kerkyra, it has calm waters and is well sheltered from the wind. Benitses is an organised beach with tavernas, sunbeds, umbrellas, showers and water sports.
