2Paleokastritsa Beach
Atmosphere/type: Pebbly coves tucked between green hills-more postcard than party. Water: Famous for emerald clarity; cooler and deeper than sandy bays, ideal for snorkeling. Facilities: Sunbeds in main coves, tavernas above the beaches, boat rentals, some limited roadside parking. Location: Northwest coast, around Paleokastritsa village. Why choose it: The best scenery-and-swim combo on the island. From Corfu Town: ~25 km, ~45 min. Tip: Water shoes help on the pebbles; visit early to beat tour-bus crowds.
