Description

Discover hidden caves by boat, enjoy the mesmerizing sunset at Afionas, one of Corfu's most charming villages
Explore Palaiokastritsa, one of the most famous seaside villages in Corfu! This relaxing afternoon tour will take you to the heart of the island's west coast, where you can discover its hidden gems at your own pace. Enjoy the island's breathtaking natural beauty. Unwind and bathe in the crystal-clear waters of Palaiokastritsa, a breathtaking gem on Corfu's west coast.

Embark on a boat tour to explore the magical caves that are inaccessible by road, such as the Cave of Nausica, the Blue Eye, and the Blue Caves. Marvel at the marine paradise with emerald-green waters, coral reefs, and colorful fish. Savor the local cuisine and renowned wines. Purchase souvenirs from the shops before departing.

Soak up one of the most traditional villages on the island, rich in history and beauty. Afionas is one of the oldest settlements on Corfu and is believed to have been named after the local grape variety. Archaeological evidence suggests that the village was first inhabited in the 6th century BC.

Take a stroll through the stone paths (kadounia) of Afionas, where bougainvillea and jasmine cascade over whitewashed walls, and the air is filled with the briny scent of the sea. Snap a photo of the old mansions, which have stood the test of time, and visit the church of Agios Ioannis Lampataro, built in 1636.

Soak up the magic of the sunset as you sit on a bench and watch the sun sink below the Ionian Sea. The sky is ablaze with color, from fiery reds and oranges to gentle pinks and purples. It is a sight that will take your breath away.

A must-add to your Corfu tours for anyone who loves nature, appreciates traditional beauty, sunsets, and wants to live like a local.
