Romantic and beautiful is the best way to describe Corfu. One of the Ionian islands, Corfu has a coastline of dazzling beach resorts with a backdrop of lush green hills and tall mountains. Away from the beautiful beach promenades and resorts, walk around the ancient narrow streets on a journey of discovery. While at night, revel in the vibrant nightlife.

Corfu is a well-established holiday destination, with over one million tourists visiting every year. The most northerly of the Ionian Islands, Corfu lies between 2 and 10km off mainland Greece and, whilst in the summer months are hot and almost entirely dry, in winter the rainfall experienced gives the island the highest average rainfall in Greece! But this helps create the verdant landscapes seen all over Corfu, particularly between late winter and early summer. The hills and meadows are full of olive trees, vineyards and citrus groves that provide a beautiful green backdrop to your holiday. There has been a human presence on Corfu for over 4,000 years, but Corinthian occupation in 743BC quickly developed the island into an important Mediterranean commercial centre. Since then, like much of Greece, Corfu's history has been turbulent on occasion, though relatively peaceful times have existed since the nineteenth century, when ownership struggles between the French and British ended, and Corfu was re-united with Greece. |
