I want to do the following in Corfu - problem is I only have a few nights. Any advice on how I can prioritize?

- Old fortress
- Canal d'Amour
- Meander though old town
- Paleolastritsa beach
- Casa Parlante
- Archaeological Museum
- Nightlife - whatever I can find

Is this too much for 3 nights?

It will be hard but doable, Visit the museum, the old fortress and casa parlante on the same day and you can meander through the old town (and visit spiridon church) on the sameday. A car will be needed to drive to the north to visit canal d'amour then carry on the coast road to Paleo. Cant help with the nightlife im afraid.

Ya, it seems like you ant to do a lot for the time you have. Brimax has some great advice. Regarding nightlife I would just ask locals what they do, or walk around and walk into a place if it catches your eye!
 

Nightlife Advice for Corfu

I'm curious about the nightlife scene on Corfu. I've heard it's a beautiful place with plenty of daytime activities, but I'm wondering if there's also a good selection of bars, clubs, or evening entertainment to enjoy after dark. Are there any specific areas or towns on Corfu known for having lively nightlife? I'm particularly interested in places where locals and tourists mix, and where I can experience authentic Greek vibes as well as some modern options.

Any recommendations for must-visit spots or tips on the best time to go out would be really helpful. I'm also open to suggestions for more laid-back evening activities, like live music or beach bars, or something like that. I am getting a feel for the vibe.

Paleokastritsa, summer 2025

Hi everyone

I have just joined this site to see if I can get some Corfu travel tips or maybe even meet some other people heading to Corfu next summer.
I am 53, from Derby, England, and I've decided to have a month's RnR in Paleokastritsa.
I'd be really keen to hear from anyone with any tips or insight into the area, life in Corfu, how I might be able to meet people and things to see and do. I'm thinking of hiring a moped to get around, do lots of reading, relaxing, hiking, eating and (a bit of) drinking! Most of all, reflecting and enjoying the environment - and the sunshine! I need to take some time to indulge in this.

What is Paleokastritsa like? From all of my research, it seems to be a good mix of quiet and lively (ie. not party town but also not completely dead). Are there restuarants there which aren't too expensive? Are there any good, chill out bars which stay open late? Also, are there ways to meet other travellers out there or is there anyone on here heading to Corfu next summer who'd be interested in connecting beforehand? It'd be really cool to build a little online community, if there was anyone in a similar position, even if they're going to a different part of the island.

Anyway, that's why I joined this site - to meet any others but also to find out about Corfu and paleokasistra. I'd love to hear from any of you!
All the best,
Neil

Learning About British Influence on Corfu

I'm planning a trip to Corfu and I'm particularly interested in learning about the British influence on the island. I've read that the British left a significant mark on Corfu during their rule in the 19th century, and I'd love to explore this aspect of the island's history.

Can anyone recommend specific historical sites, museums, or landmarks that highlight the British presence in Corfu? Are there particular buildings or areas in Corfu Town that showcase British architecture or influence?

I'm also interested in any guided tours or local experts who specialize in this topic. Additionally, any tips on literature or resources that provide a deeper understanding of this period in Corfu's history would be greatly appreciated.
