Beach overall scores
Kastelli beach (Ioanian Islands) is located outside the Krini 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 correct question is not how to get to Kastelli beach, but what mode of transport can be used to get to it, because this part of the coast is inaccessible by land. The beach can only be reached by water and you have to rent a boat to get there.
User reviews
"This is hands down the best beach in Corfu. Accessible only by boat or kayak, there's no need to venture elsewhere. The water is crystal clear and perfect for snorkeling with some small fish to spot. While the water may be a bit chilly in July, it's still great for swimming. However, I'd advise against visiting Sidari as it doesn't compare to this beach."
Evan Scott
"This picturesque and charming cove is a hidden gem that can only be reached by boat. The beach boasts a rocky seabed that gradually deepens just a few meters from the shoreline. While it may not be the ideal destination for families with young children, it is a great spot for those seeking a peaceful and tranquil getaway."
