User reviews
"I must admit, during the off-season, the beach does have a certain charm. However, due to our haste, I was unable to fully immerse myself in the water. Despite this, I would consider revisiting during the warmer months, not for any fanciful tales or folklore, but solely for the sheer magnificence of the water."
Marlon Zekto Kovalenko
"The beach is an enchanting destination that will leave an indelible mark on your mind. Take a leisurely stroll along the various bays of Canal D'Amour and witness the captivating sunsets in shades of peach and pink with a breathtaking view of the Adriatic Sea. This location is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful spots on the island of Corfu."
