Beach overall scores
Kanoni Beach (Ioanian Islands) is located outside the Kassiopi 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 Kanoni 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.

"Oh, wow, the water is like a precious gemstone, so clear and blue that it's almost hypnotizing. The area for lounging is a bit tight, but with a little perseverance, we managed to snag a spot to lay our towels down in the afternoon. And hey, who needs a huge space when you have the sparkling sea as your playground?"
Aria Jolivet
"This beach is absolutely stunning and definitely worth a visit. It's a prime location for snorkeling due to the abundance of rocks and sea creatures. However, it's important to note that the beach is mostly rocky, making it a bit challenging to set up an umbrella. There are roughly 20 parking spots available, but if they're all taken, you'll have to circle around the cliff (..."

Is the beach good for sunbathing?
Kanoni 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 Kanoni 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 Kanoni 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.
