PALEOKASTRITSA
Paleokastritsa situated 25 km from Corfu Town in the North West coast of the island. The landscape around Paleokastritsa is still as beautiful as you will find in all of Greece. It is famous for its breathtaking beauty and magnificent scenery.
Sheercliffs and rugged headlands are interspesed with coves or silver sand coiled between mountains cloaked in emerald green. If you head upwards on a long and twisting road, will arrive at "Bella Vista". From here, perched high above Palekastritsa's coves you can view the scene in all its magnificence.
The resort offers a fine selection of amenities for both young and old alike. There are a number of hotels and restaurants built right on the beach, but they are incapable of disturbing the beauty of the landscape as they are often hidden behind lush greenery.
The monastery of Paleokastritsa was founded in 1225, while the buildings in their present state date back to the 18th century. It is a great place to enjoy a peaceful sunset overlooking the Ionian sea.
