On the west coast of peninsular Greece, Corfu is the best known of the island archipelago. The historic center of its capital is a melting pot of cultures with Venetian Renaissance palaces, British monuments, the unusual Liston Avenue, inspired by the Parisian Rue de Rivoli, and the Spianada, the largest square in all of Greece. Enjoy nature and exceptional beaches and discover the village of Paleokastrítsa.

Paxos and Antipaxos, the two small islands near Corfu, are a paradise for having fun in the natural environment and in the sea. The rest of the lesser-known Ionian islands also offer exceptional scenarios.

Kefalonia is the largest of all, with charming coastal towns and beautiful beaches such as Myrtos, considered one of the ten best in the world. Ithaca hearkens back to the myth of Ulysses.

The capital of the island of Citera, stands out for its citadel with fourty churches at the foot of the castle. In Leucate, linked to the mainland by a bridge, visit the monastery of Faneromenis with incredible views over the sea. Zante is another remarkable piece of Mediterranean landscape with olive trees, vineyards, beaches with crystal clear waters and white sand embraced by cliffs. Staying in charming small hotels rounds off this destination that appeals to all the senses.
