Cruising Around Corfu

  • March 26, 2021
  • Jules

Corfu has always been globally known as one of the top holiday destinations due to its incredible beauty along with its picturesque beaches. Due to this, Corfu has now become a primary departure point for sailors and those who want to see Greece from a different perspective. When imagining yourself cruising on a boat along the coast of Greece from Corfu, it’s easy to see why. If you’re planning a trip to Corfu and decide to see the coast by boat, here are a few tips! 

If you’re planning a family outing or just a day out with your friends, you can relax knowing that the waters are generally calm around Corfu. Departing from Corfu into the Ionian Sea will be one of the most breathtaking things you’ll ever encounter. The scenery and turquoise waters will leave you in awe as you explore the area both on land and in the water. In our opinion, we would leave a minimum of 7 days to explore the area. Once you start visiting the islands around Corfu, it goes without saying that you’ll want to explore as much as possible. Even though the surrounding islands are incredible, don’t forget to fully explore the history and beauty of Corfu first. 

If you’re planning a yacht charter in Corfu, you’ll most likely have the time to see several beautiful areas within the Ionian Sea. One of the first must see islands is Paxos. Paxos is known for its impressive caves and charming villages. Here you’ll be able to find secluded beaches with crystal clear water, worthy of any perfect holiday. 

A second place in Greece that shouldn’t be missed both on land and on water is Lefkada. Lefkada embodies everything that you would want in Greece. With its trademark houses on the edge of the sea, you’ll feel the Greek charm. Lefkada is perfect for those who like an adventure, as it’s full of hidden caves, waterfalls and trails that are perfect for hiking. 

Very similar to Lefkada, but with its own beauty is the island of Ithaca. Ithaca is home to a rich history that is typical of Greece. On the island, you’ll find more impressive trails leading to historic caves, and after, you can take a stroll to the archaeological museum. 

After visiting all of these historic sites, it is worth coming back to Corfu to experience the island one last time. Take in the wonderful natural landscapes and feel the strong ancient culture that is present. If the beaches around Corfu aren’t enough to keep you busy, you’ll have several UNESCO listed sites that you’ll have to see. Surely, a trip to Corfu would be more than enough to top your list of the best holiday destinations of the year. With a boat rental in Corfu, you’ll have access to the surrounding islands to make an already unforgettable vacation even better.
