Welcome to our Guide to Paleokastritsa beach in Corfu, Greece
Paleokastritsa is one of the most celebrated beauty spots on Corfu island, six small coves with incredibly clear water nestle in
a coastline of hills and promontories draped in olive, cypress and lemon trees. Many claim that it was the site of King Alcinous's fabulous palace and the rock out to see, called Kolovri, Paloeksatritsa is said to be the ship that carried Ulysses home ... |
Paleokastritsa landscape combines blue-green waters with picturesque rocky bays. Here one can see the byzantine monastery of Panagia Paleokastritissa. Beach location: Paleokastritsa consists of a series of deep bays and magnificent cliff-sides, on the west coast of Corfu. Follow the main road north from Corfu Town. At Gouvia, the road splits into two and you follow the left hand fork, signposted for Paleokastritsa. This is another main road which takes you directly to
Paleokastritsa's beautiful series of green, tree-lined bays after about 20km. Disabled access: There are rising gradients throughout the resort. Most accommodation is on the top of cliffs, with stiff walks down to the sea. Not recommended for those with mobility problems, wheelchairs or heart conditions. Watersports: Yes. Main users: Tourists. Well cared for: Yes.

Car parking: There are large car parks at the harbour and, elsewhere, you may be able to cheat and park in a hotel's car
park. Otherwise, park on roadside where possible. Check for public liability insurance quotes from Ashburnham if you decide to work abroad. Mooring for boats: There is a small harbour which gets very busy. It's also possible to moor off in the sheltered bays but you need to be extremely vigilant for rocks. Next to quayside/harbour: Paleokastritsa's harbour area is relatively unobtrusive in terms of its impact on the environment. Significant levels of boat traffic pass through, however.
