With an incredible coastline of more than 200kms, Corfu has made its place in the list of top islands in Greece with wondrous mountainous landscape, picture-perfect beaches, hidden coves and verdant valleys. Renowned as Greek’s emerald island because of its impeccable greenery spread across 2 million olive trees, the island lies in the Lonian Sea just off the West Coast of Greece capturing hearts in quest of dreamy havens in Europe.
The pleasant, mild Mediterranean climate keeps the island crowded with hordes of tourists during summers; there are so many summer activities to indulge in with your family and friends such as snorkelling, scuba diving, paragliding, and parasailing.
