Paleokastritsa has long been considered one of the most beautiful villages in Corfu and is a renowned Greek
beauty spot. Paleokastritsa is chiefly memorable for the excepcional scenery along with the superb beaches. Here
you can swim at six different secluded sand and fine pebble beaches enclosed by tall cliffs, wooded headlands, olive groves, lemon and cypress trees and lush hilly countryside. Paleokastritsa is situated 16 miles north-west of Corfu's attractive capital, Kerkyra. The resort runs along the coast road that winds among the cliffs and sheltered bays.

Paleokastritsa is a hilly place full of twists and turns and unexpected views. The beach is famous for its clear
water and striking blue-green colours. In fact it is one of a string of six spectacularly situated coves. Rocks provide great points for diving. Snorkelling is another justly popular holiday activity. Favourite Paleokastritsa walks are up to the promontory farthest north to find the charming local monastery. Tavernas and accommodations are scattered around the resort, many in excellent locations. Paleokastritsa is not for those seeking lots of lively nightlife but there are plenty of tavernas, bars and pubs to keep you busy if you wish, as ithas been a British favourite for years
