This central area offers organized swimming spots, easy access to boat rentals, and most of the village's facilities.
Paleokastritsa features six distinct coves with clear, turquoise water. The central bays provide sunbeds, water sports, and direct access to boat tours.
Swimmers should stay within designated zones because of heavy motorboat traffic. The sea here is noticeably colder than on the eastern side of Corfu due to deep currents and underground springs.
2-3 hoursSandy with SeaTrac accessibility
This is the largest and sandiest main beach in the village. It features a SeaTrac system, allowing wheelchair users to enter the water easily. Arrive early to secure space, as it gets very crowded by mid-morning with boat tour departures.
2 hoursShingle beach
Agia Triada is a spacious, sheltered shingle beach known for calm, relatively shallow water. You will find beach bars and water sports available here. It is an ideal spot for families with children.
1-2 hoursQuiet pebbled cove
This small, quiet pebbled cove sits tucked between the main headland and the harbor. It provides a peaceful place to swim away from the largest crowds. Bring water shoes for a comfortable entry over the pebbles.
1 hourBoat rentals available
The local harbor serves as the departure point to charter yachts or rent small motorboats. No license is required to operate a small motorboat yourself. Book your rental a day in advance if you visit during July and August.
