I’m a huge fan of scenic views and would love to hear your recommendations for the best spots to enjoy the natural beautify of Corfu.

Whether it’s a hidden viewpoint, a stunning beach with crystal-clear waters, or a charming village with panoramic views, I’m all ears! I'm also interested in hearing about any great spots for watching the sunset or places that offer a unique perspective of Corfu's coastline and lush greenery.

If you have any favorite lookout points, restaurants with a view, or even hiking trails that offer breathtaking scenery, I’d greatly appreciate your suggestions!
 
For stunning views in Corfu, you can't miss Angelokastro, a Byzantine castle perched on a cliff offering panoramic views of the island’s coastline and lush landscapes. For a charming village experience, head to Pelekas—it’s known for its incredible viewpoints, especially the Kaiser's Throne, where you can catch breathtaking sunsets over the Ionian Sea.

Porto Timoni is a hidden gem; it’s a twin beach accessible via a short hike, offering clear waters and an amazing natural setting. For crystal-clear waters, visit Paleokastritsa, which has several viewpoints and boat tours that showcase the dramatic cliffs and hidden coves.

For dining with a view, The Venetian Well in Corfu Town offers a unique atmosphere with a touch of history. If you enjoy hiking, the Corfu Trail provides diverse landscapes, from olive groves to coastal cliffs, with plenty of scenic spots along the way. Enjoy your scenic adventures!

Public Transport Options in Corfu?

I’m planning a trip to Corfu soon and I’m hoping to rely mostly on public transportation to get around the island. I’ve read that the bus system is fairly extensive, but I’m a bit unsure about how easy it is to navigate, especially when visiting more remote areas or smaller villages.

Can anyone share tips on how to effectively use public buses in Corfu? Are there specific apps or websites that are particularly helpful for checking schedules and routes? Also, any advice on how reliable the service is, particularly during peak tourist season?

Also, if there are any other forms of public transport worth considering, I’d love to hear about those as well. I want to avoid renting a car if possible, so any insights on getting around the island efficiently that would help me.

I am trying to decide if I want to rent a car.,

Thanks in advance!

Spending Two Days in Corfu?

I’m planning a short trip to Corfu and will have just two days to explore this beautiful island. I’d love your advice on how to make the most of my time there.

What are the must-see attractions or experiences for a first-time visitor? I’ve heard a lot about Corfu Town and its Venetian charm—are there specific spots I shouldn’t miss? I’m also interested in nature, so any recommendations for scenic views or beaches would be amazing.

Should I rent a car to get around, or is public transport enough for a short visit? And, of course, I can’t leave without trying some local food—any suggestions for authentic tavernas or must-try dishes?

Looking forward to hearing your tips and insights!

Visiting the Castles on Corfu

I’m planning a trip to Corfu and am particularly excited about exploring the island’s castles and fortresses. I’ve heard there are some incredible historical sites like the Old Fortress and the New Fortress in Corfu Town, but I’d love to hear more about them and any other castles that are worth visiting.

Does anyone have recommendations on the best way to explore these sites? Are there guided tours that provide a lot of historical context, or is it better to explore on your own? I’m also curious about any hidden spots or lesser-known castles around the island that I shouldn’t miss. Thank you!

Information about Corfu Public Transport?

I’m planning a trip to Corfu and trying to decide whether I need to rent a car or if public transportation will be enough to get around. I know I can look up schedules myself, but what I really want to hear is first-hand experiences from people who have actually used the buses in Corfu.

Are they reliable and frequent, or should I expect long waits and delays? Do they run late into the evening, or will I be stranded if I stay out too late? Also, are some areas of the island better to stay in if I want to rely on buses rather than a car?

I don’t mind renting a car if I really need to, but I’d love to avoid it if public transportation is decent. Any insights or tips from those who have been there? Thanks in advance!
