Discover Palaiokastritsa: A Jewel of Corfu
Your journey begins with a scenic drive across Corfu, arriving at Paleokastritsa, one of the island’s most picturesque and captivating spots. Here, steep cliffs rise sharply from the deep blue waters of the Ionian Sea, creating an idyllic landscape that captures the very heart of Mediterranean beauty.
Paleokastritsa is a place where time slows down, and nature takes center stage. Its beaches — with their crystal‑clear waters — invite you to swim and relax. The surrounding hills, dotted with olive and cypress trees, create a serene backdrop that feels almost unreal.
As you dip into the turquoise waters, the salty breeze and warm sun will wash away your cares, making this one of the best swimming spots in Corfu. You can also wander down to the harbor, where traditional fishing boats bob lazily in the gentle waves, or hop on a boat excursion to explore the area’s famed sea caves.
The Monastery of Theotokos: A Spiritual and Scenic Delight
For those seeking a deeper connection with Corfu’s heritage, a visit to the Monastery of Theotokos is a must. Perched high atop a cliff, this beautiful monastery offers sweeping panoramic views of the surrounding coastline. Its serene setting is complemented by a rich spiritual heritage that dates back to the 13th century.
As you ascend the steps to the monastery, you’ll be greeted by its charming courtyard adorned with colorful flowers, a small museum housing religious relics, and a chapel where the soft glow of candles illuminates ancient icons. From the monastery’s vantage point, you can soak in spectacular views of the emerald waters and the craggy cliffs of the Paleokastritsa coastline — a scene that will linger in your memory long after you’ve departed.
The Enotis Olive Oil Museum: An Authentic Taste of Corfu
After enjoying the beaches and spiritual tranquility of Paleokastritsa, your journey takes you inland to the Enotis Olive Oil Museum. Here, amid olive groves that have shaped Corfu’s heritage for millennia, you’ll uncover the traditions, flavors, and craftsmanship that make olive oil the heart of the Mediterranean diet.
The museum showcases Corfu’s rich olive oil heritage with fascinating exhibits, old pressing equipment, and a guided tasting that allows you to experience the unique, aromatic richness of Corfiot olive oil.
