About Paleokastritsa

Paleokastritsa beach is found in front of the homonymous famous cosmopolitan tourist resort at a distance of 23km Northwestern to the town of Corfu within an area of luxurious green full of olive trees and pine trees reaching the edge of the coast. You will enjoy swimming and sunbathing at several beautiful beaches in front of the village which combine sand, pebbles and small stones with beautiful rocks and crystal clear very cool water. Cold water is one of the most characteristic features of the sea in the area; even in full summer, the sea never gets hot. If you wish you may rent a small boat and start exploring the broader coastal area: you will sail up to “Petrokaravo” (meaning “the stone ship), or Kolouri, as its official name is. The locals will tell you many stories and legends about this small rock in the sea. Finally, if you like diving, a diving center is available both for beginners and for experts of the sport.

The main beach is quite small and very popular. It is surrounded by bars and hotels and there is a road behind it so is not quiet. But the views of the cove are great. You can get a boat here which takes you around the many caves in the area. Paleokastritsa is the honey pot of the west coast, with hotels spreading so far up into the surrounding area that some are a taxi ride from town. The village itself is small, surrounded by hills and cliffs - an idyllic setting which led British High Commissioner Sir Frederic Adam to popularize Paleokastritsa in the nineteenth century. Pa-le-o-ka-str-it-sa (pronunciation: just let it roll off the tongue!) is set around three main bays. It is famous for being the islands most treasured beauty spot, and becomes busy with day trippers throughout the season. Luxury yachts sail in to admire the back drop of the beautiful green hills, while coaches clog up the narrow roads leading into town!

Attractions

The main focal point of Paleokastritsa is the monastery located on the headland. Built in the 17th century, it attracts several tourists who can experience a true traditional Greek church that has remained untouched for hundreds of years. For those interested in seeing how the other half lives, there is the Paleokastritsa Marina, which is home to some of the most extravagant yachts, owned by both Greek and wealthy visitors alike. A lovely place to visit for outstanding views is the ancient ruin of Angelokastro perched high on a rock overlooking the sea and the beautiful bays of Paleokastritsa. This old Byzantine fortress is situated on a seemingly inaccessible cliff top near the town of Krini on the northwest shore of Corfu. If you drive as close as you can to the base of the hill you'll find a path to climb and steep and narrow path. The rock is 609 meters (1,998 feet) high, surrounded by sea, and only connected to the mainland by a narrow channel. The fortress was the western-most outpost of the Despotate of Epirus, a Greek Orthodox governmental structure that began to prevail in the western Balkans as the Byzantine Empire was in decline in the 13th century. During Venetian rule of the island the governor's seat was in the fortress. If you reach the fortress you'll find a chapel, a shrine in a cave, a pilgrimage site, the cell of a hermit, and marvelous views.
