Paleokastritsa is located a little further north of the center of the island on the west coast. It is about 25 kms from the Corfu town. It is one of the places that you have to visit when you find yourself in the Ionian islands. It has been called the jewel of Corfu, set on a number of bays separated by small promontories.
Paleokastritsa is green, yes but the whole Corfu is green ! So what makes this place so memorable? Probably it is the beautiful shape of the seaside with the capes and bays-beaches in between, 6 in total. Also, the spectacular view from the hills above the resort from the village of Lakones.
Beaches are fully organized, especially the central beach of Agios Spiridon with sunbeds and umbrellas, water sports, taxi boats, motorboats, and canoes for rent. There are many tavernas and bars strung out along the road, some on the hillside, and others on the water’s edge.
