Holidays In Corfu

Corfu is a truly stunning island with its verdant blanket of olives, its sandy beaches and its azure seas. With resorts to suit all ages, it is not surprising that it is a favourite with British tourists. The sandy beaches are in the north, east and south of the island which is less than forty miles long, and the western coast has towering cliffs and sheltered coves. With Corfu Town being fairly central on the eastern coast, is can be easily visited from any resort on the island. Its sixteenth century fortress, its architecture with Neapolitan and French influences, its churches and monuments and of course its shops, are all compelling reasons to visit the island's principle town.

Hotels, apartments and villas provide a range of good quality accommodation to suit all budgets. Restaurants and tavernas cater for all tastes. The larger resorts have English style pubs and fast food outlets.

Corfu holidays offer plenty of child centred activities and sightseeing opportunities. The large water park on the island, thrills adults as well as children. A championship course awaits the keen golfer.

With a guarantee of sunshine, tasty food and wine, great beaches and welcoming islanders, Corfu holidays are sure to please.
