kassiopi
Kassiopi is the largest village of northern Corfu and, in the last few years, it has been evolved into a modern tourist resort.
Here, there are the ruins of a castle, built during the period of the dominance of Andigavi (1267-1386), which is considered one of the most powerful castles of the countryside of Corfu. You can also visit the church of Panaghia (Virgin Mary) Kassopitra, one of the most important religious monuments of northern Corfu, built, as it is said, on the foundations of the ancient temple of Cassiopean Zeus, during the first years of Christianity. The church was destroyed by the Turks and it was rebuilt by the Venetians in 1580.

The beach (also known as Kalamaki) is in the picturesque, small and quiet village with the same name in nortwest Corfu, near the cosmopolital Kassiopi (3.5 km) and Arachavi (4.5 km). It’s an endless beach with crystall, very shallow water and white sand and it is organized. Nearby in other beaches you may find boats for excursions. An ideal choice for those seeking peace and quiet.

Paved with gravel and pebbles (ideal for collectors) it is in a bay formed by the low hills of northeast Corfu. A wonderful beach with cear water and peaceful surroundings, ideal for those seeking a less cosmopolitan place to swim or boat tours and diving. You may find here taverns and rooms to let. During the summer, on Sundays, you may find here a lot of locals come who prefer it for its clear water.

One of the prettier beaches of Corfu, quiet, with pebbles. It combines clean sea, great green colour with the tree branches touching the sea, picturesque bays, high standard services and a cosmopolitan environment, but without big tourist facilites.

A beautiful beach with small pebbles where the trees reach up to the sea. It is near Kassiopi town.
