Palaio Frourio is an old citadel, old Venetian fortress built on top of an islet, being surrounded with fortifications. Parts of its perimeter (eastern part) suffer erosion, being lost in the sea.
Given its location in the Ionian Sea, Corfu – which is the northernmost of all significant Ionian Island – makes possible trips to Albania (port of Saranda)
The Agios Spyridon Beach (also referred to as the Perithia Beach) is unique in Corfu by its proximity to a fresh water lake.
Paleokastritsa is, by far, the jewel beach resort on the west coast of Corfu island. Its main attractions are the blue flagged beaches and water sports.
