10 Things to do Good for Kids in Corfu That You Shouldn't Miss
Corfu is studded with whitewashed houses, Byzantine churches, and the remains of Venetian fortresses and Greek temples. Wander the ancient streets of the Roman village of Kassiopi or explore the central Esplanade of the eponymous Corfu Town. For a DIY spa experience, lather yourself in mineral mud on the shore of the Canal D’Amour. Legend has it that the waterfalls of Nymphes used to attract the mythological beauties of the same name, who would flock to the village to bathe in the pristine waters.

Interesting, small, local history museum. Interior in good shape as well as furnitures and objects. Museum uses motorized dummies to animate history. They are not robots, only the head or arm is moving back and forth. The museum tour is always led by the guide. There is possibility to ask questions, which is absolutely nice. This is a little gem of Cofu Town..the price is 5 euro each, and you also receive a glass of rose liqueur and a guided tour of 19th century living...You will enjoy this museum. It's something different from others, it has its uniqueness.

Hope was our first rescue in January 2004, Dusty the second. Since then over 450 donkeys have been taken into our refuge here in Corfu. As a refuge we aim to give: the old a safe and happy retirement; the sick a chance of cure; the injured the chance of recovery; the abused the chance of regaining trust and hope and the abandoned the feeling of security again. Take a look on our website for more information, pictures and a detailed map.You are very welcome to visit us, see the work we do and experience the calm company of our donkeys.
3. Church of Saint Spiridon
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 720 reviews
Saint Spyridon Church , the miraculous and Saint of Corfu The history and the tradition of our local Church from 1456 is imminently connected with Saint Spyridon. The arrival of his holy relic from Istanbul, his staying in Corfu, the built of his church along with the establishment of five big feasts based on Him led the christians to believe that Corfu cannot exist without Him. But even our local Church owes Him a lot. Not only did He protect it during the hard times of the Venetian Occupation, but also from other foreign occupations. French, Russians, English, Italians and Germans have passed over our island, staying for different lapses of time.

This beach is well suited to families in the central area with the usual sunbeds, brollies and showers. The north and south beaches are textile optional and both are sheltered by high cliffs. Access to the south and north beaches is sometime limited by high water levels and wading may be needed in places.

With luxurious accommodations and picturesque views, Almyros Beach Resort and Spa offers the ultimate escape. Our charming newly 5-star hotel in Acharavi boasts modern features and amenities.

We have recently returned from a weeks stay booked as a Jet2 package hotel. The hotel was a last minute booking as we was due to travel to Spain but was unable to due to the coronavirus pandemic. The hotel is very modern and well spaced out. The food quality was one of the best I have experience at an all inclusive. We stayed on a ground floor room as there are no lifts and we have a 7 month old child. We treated ourselves to a spa treatment which was excellent. The beach is literally right outside the hotel across a small quiet road. Their are also a hand full of tavernas in walking distance. We didn’t walk into the local town but I understand this is a 30 minute walk along the beach. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Great panoramic views upstairs, beatiful old buildings, nice bar inside. A definite must visit and well worth the entrance fee of 6 euros per adult (or lower for students and kids). Loved it!
