Kerkyra Travel Guide: 379 reviews and 851 photos

KERKYRA also known as "Corfu" is the best known and the most northern island of the Ionian Sea.
It measures : 65 km from North to South and covers an area of 570 km.
It is mainly hilly. The highest mountain peak is the "Pantokrator" (906 metres).
It has a mild climate and the greatest part of this island is covered with olive trees.
Corfu has pretty fishing villages, gently shelving beaches and sparkling clear waters.
The west coast, with its high cliffs and long sweeping sandy beaches, is a complete contrast.

Corfu town
Monastery Vlacherna and Pondikonisi
