Overview Places to Go Things to Do

Dassia, which means forest, has become popular holiday destination.  The long shingle beach, which has been awarded a Blue Flag, is well organized with sunbeds and umbrellas for rent and many types of watersports that include wind surfing and water skiing.  The back of the beach is shaded by trees, and the area is flat making it easy to walk around and explore.

From the beach the Albanian coastline is visible and worth exploring, and on a clear day the Monastery of Pantocrator can be seen.

Places to Go

Corfu Town

Corfu Town has much to offer even the most well travelled visitor. The art galleries and museums, of which there are more than a dozen, hold regular exhibitions. The town’s three brass bands, symphony orchestra, opera company, choir, contemporary and traditional dance groups and drama societies guarantee a full programme of musical and theatrical events.

New Fortress

Started in 1577 and completed in 1588, the New Fortress was built on the Hill of St. Mark and is on two levels. The lower was to protect the port and the upper to protect the city. As a Naval look out point and protected by a deep moat, the New Fortress was instrumental in protecting Western Europe from Turkish invasion. There are tunnels that link the Old and New Fortresses, but are not open to the public.

Mon Repo Palace

Mon Repo Palace is on Analipsis Hill on the edge of the ancient city of Corfu. Built by the British Commissioner Frederic Adams as a gift for his Corfiot wife in 1826. It is a small but very beautiful building with stunning gardens. In 1864 after the Unification of Greece it became the summer residence of the Greek Royal family and was the birth place of Prince Philip.
