Corfu
GLYFADA BEACH | sand On the opposite side of the island from Corfu Town, you’ll find one of the most popular beaches — and for good reason. The sand at Glyfada beach is soft on your feet and looks like light brown sugar. The water is calm and inviting and remains shallow for several metres. Glyfada beach is laid out with sunbeds and umbrellas and has a few restaurants nearby. Be sure to get a doughnut or freshly cut fruit from one of the beach vendors. CANAL D’AMOUR | lo d-up ims Truly one of the most beautiful beaches on Corfu is Canal d’Amour. There are several rock formations that create hidden coves and caves around the coastline. You can lay your towel out on the smooth rocks to sunbathe or rent a sunbed. There are several spots set up for cli jumping into the turquoise waters. It gets its name, French for ‘Channel of Love’, from the superstition that if a couple swims through the channel together, they’ll soon be married. PALEOKASTRITSA BEACH | ing For a green and lush slice of paradise, head to the west side of Corfu to Paleokastritsa Beach. The water is spectacularly clean and very refreshing on hot summer days. The shore is a mix of small pebbles and sand.
