Latest reviews on Corfu's beaches

Ksamil Beach
6 Felix Rajkovski

During our brief visit to Ksamil, we decided to take a day trip from Himara. The beach, while compact, was bustling with activity and dotted with an abundance of umbrellas and sunbeds which can be reserved in advance for a fee of 1000lek. The shallows were also quite crowded, making it difficult to relax and unwind. If you're seeking a more tranquil experience, it may be best to avoid visiting in August when the crowds are at their peak. However, it's possible that during the off-season, this beach could offer a more serene and peaceful atmosphere.

acharavi beach

If you're searching for a secluded spot on a beach with light sand and pebbles, then this is the perfect destination for you.

Myrtiotissa beach
9 Bonnie Peterson

I lived there for 4 months in the early 70’s, sleeping under the olive trees on the top of the hill above, eating at a taverna owned by Spiro and Maria who had one daughter named Fadna. Everyone ate whatever Maria cooked, Spiro kept a tab for each person and gave us a shot of ouzo when we settled our tab. There were people from everywhere but only 2 of us from the US! We took showers in fresh water that came off the hillside onto the beach. I’m grateful I had that experience before it became developed!

Ipsos beach
10 Raul Hernandez

We stumbled upon a magnificent beach that caught our eye while passing by and decided to stay. It's an ideal spot for families with children as it stretches for a long distance. Although the beach is pebbly, the water is crystal clear and turquoise, and after a mere 2 meters, the sand becomes the finest and softest white sand. The water remains shallow for quite some time, making it safe for children to swim. Kids can also enjoy an inflatable water park available at 10 euros per person per day. The beach is lined with restaurants and shops, and parking is available on the road. We discovered an enchanting Patisserie named Sugar nearby and savored some fantastic coffee there. The beach provides showers and changing cabins, and the water is notably warmer compared to the West coast of Corfu.

Glass beach
9 Mallorca feelings

Diese Bucht ist der absolute Hammer, doch darf man auch den Weg dorthin nicht unterschätzen, teilweise muss man sich von Seil zu Seil hangeln, sportlich muss man auf jedenfall sein bei dieser Tour.

Skaloma beach II
10 Elena

This beach is absolutely stunning! The sand is fine, and it's usually not crowded, allowing for a peaceful and relaxing experience under the sun. The scenery is beautiful, making it the perfect spot to unwind and do nothing. Just keep in mind that there are no bars or amenities, so it's best to bring your own supplies. Despite being located near the ferry port, the occasional ferry every couple of hours might be a minor inconvenience for some, but overall, it's definitely worth a visit.
