North East Coast
Kalami & Aharavi - Transfer time 60 minutes
For years the north-east corner of Corfu has attracted the discerning visitor, for the heart of this winding stretch of coastline packs a huge scenic punch. The rocky coast restricts development, so here narrow roads run steeply down to white-pebble coves and beaches. This is a land of small villages and fishing hamlets dominated by Mount Pantokrator above. Especially beautiful are the views to Albania.
At its halfway point is pretty Kalami. The village is small, albeit busy in season, but has not been overly spoilt by its claim to fame in the shape of the Durrell family, who lived here in the 1930’s – their house now a pleasant taverna.
The coastline here is best explored by small motor boat. You do not need to go far to enjoy a little cove-hopping or a different taverna for lunch. Agni in particular is a delight – a peaceful and very pretty bay containing three noted tavernas.

North Coast
Aharavi - Transfer time 60 minutes
Past the tip of the island is the start of Almiros beach, one of the longest on Corfu and remarkably little-developed until Aharavi a little way along. This small resort is generally low-key and holds appeal for families as the beach is safe and magnificently sandy. Some fine walking is also to be had from here.
In fact walking everywhere in the north is a major attraction. Serious walkers will find Mount Pantokrator offers unlimited scope, its slopes awash with flowers, birds and butterflies in the spring and early summer. Casual walkers will enjoy the coastal routes, as tracks over the headlands link the coves in mainly easy walking.
