Ionian Islands

 

The most northerly Ionian island, Corfu is green, quite traditional and offers beaches, verdant countryside and the sophistication of Corfu town.

The old town of Corfu is just spectacular, magical, with tall Italian architectural monuments, the sea walls and endless narrow alleys, deeply reminiscent of the older Venetian influence. With so many beautiful and varied beaches in Corfu awarded for their beauty and the cleanliness of their waters, it is almost impossible to choose the best

The setting for Louis de Bernières’ fabulous novel Captain Corelli’s Mandolin, Kefallonia, is well known for its rugged scenery, friendly locals, a certain rural charm, and some of the best beaches in the whole of Greece.

Zakynthos (also known as Zante) is the southernmost and third largest of the Ionian Islands and is situated south of Kefalonia and west of Peloponnese.

Lefkada meanwhile is one of the most enchanting and beautiful Greek islands combining a green landscape with clear blue, clean beaches. It is one of the seven islands of the Ionian Sea and is unique because it is connected with the rest of Greece by means of a bridge.

Corfu

Situated just off Greece’s northwest coast in the Ionian Sea, the cosmopolitan island of Corfu is among the most beautiful of all the Greek islands.

It is most famous for its emerald mountains, sun-baked olive groves, and crystal-clear waters lapping the rugged coastline.

Visitors can explore the maze of narrow cobblestoned lanes in the Venetian old quarter of Corfu Town; discover the picturesque cottages covered in wisteria, bougainvillaea, jacaranda and roses scattered around the island; and enjoy the many delightful beaches.

Don’t miss the opportunity to trace the steps of the famous author, Gerald Durrell, who spent a few years of his childhood exploring the beauty and wildlife of this enchanting island in his widely acclaimed book: My Family and Other Animals.

Zakynthos (Zante)

Located in the Ionian Sea, the Greek island of Zakynthos is the third largest in the Ionian Archipelago. Dubbed ‘The flower of the east’, the island is known for its exquisite natural beauty, dramatic landscapes and crystal-clear turquoise waters.

Visitors can enjoy swimming and a variety of watersports at the beautiful beaches of Agios Nikolaos, Alykanas and Tsilivi.

The undeniable highlight of the island is its infamous 1980 shipwreck, tucked away on the spectacular Navagio Beach, a picturesque and secluded cove encircled by impressive towering cliffs and only accessible by boat.

Don’t miss the beautiful ‘Blue Caves’, cut into the cliffs at Cape Skinari. Spend a leisurely afternoon taking in a public concert at the enormous historic Solomos Square, or meander along the charming waterfront.

Kephalonia
