Beach overall scores
Ai Gordis (Ioanian Islands) region (Thesprotia sub-region) is located outside the Paleochori settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Corfu island and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Ai Gordis with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.
User reviews
"The beach is stunning with soft sand and crystal-clear waters, perfect for snorkeling with a variety of underwater sights. There are complimentary lounge chairs and umbrellas available, but it can get busy during peak times. Don't forget to check out the beach bar across the way for a refreshing drink."
Rexy
"In August 2018, I visited a fantastic beach that had a unique feature - a free beach facility. All they ask is that you order something from the bar, like a 2€ frappe coffee, to show your appreciation. The sea was amazing, teeming with rock fish, sea urchins, and crabs. The beach was spacious and peaceful, with a road for free parking and a restaurant with a bar nearby."
