Beach overall scores
Limni beach (Ioanian Islands) is located outside the Palaiokastritsa 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 Limni beach 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 has a lovely gravel texture and is an excellent spot for snorkeling, but it's important to keep an eye out for jellyfish. The descent to the beach is manageable as long as you're wearing sturdy footwear, but it may not be suitable for young children or elderly individuals."
Larsen Kessler
"The beach is lovely with pebbles and they provide sunbeds. Occasionally, a canteen boat comes by. The water temperature is not too cold. You can drive to the end of the main road and then walk for 10-15 minutes down the road. At the sign, you can either take a left or continue straight. We missed the sign and went straight."

Is the beach good for sunbathing?
Limni beach (Corfu island) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Limni beach (Corfu island) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Limni beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
