20 kilometers north from Corfu Town there is the Barbati Beach, a stretch yielding a spectacular scenery since it brings into a fortunate alliance the landscape marked by the towering Mount Pantokrator and the smooth seascape. Barbati is one of the blue flagged venues in Corfu, but besides this label which, in fact, covers a valuable quality of the beach, the venue takes pride in being 1000 meters long and one of the most popular in Corfu. No wonder, since it is fitted with plenty of water sports and boat hire facilities. In addition, its surroundings are dotted with sleeping and eating venues, which guarantees an almost constant concourse on the beach.
Another rather unmatched beach in the west of Corfu refers to the Myrtiotissa Beach, an excellent venue for those who know how to appreciate a stretch of sand
The Agios Stefanos Beach is located in the northwestern side of Corfu, and the increasing popularity of this venue amasses more and more tourists each year
From Corfu to Ithaca you can travel by ferry. Ithaca is the homeland of Odysseus, Greek mythical hero. The hotels on Ithaca island are in Vathi village.
