Corfu VIP services - Travel & Leisure

Corfu, an island off Greece’s northwest coast in the Ionian Sea, is defined by rugged mountains and a resort-studded shoreline. Its cultural heritage reflects years spent under Venetian, French and British rule before it was united with Greece in 1864. Corfu Town, flanked by 2 imposing Venetian fortresses, features winding medieval lanes, a French-style arcade and the grand Palace of St. Michael and St. George. Built by the British, the palace is now home to an extensive collection of antiquities in the Museum of Asian Art. South of town, the 19th-century neoclassical Achilleion Villa has terraced gardens dotted with statues. On Corfu’s west coast, Palaiokastritsa has the medieval clifftop Angelokastro Castle and a rugged shore with a cluster of grottos that invite diving. The island's beaches range from the fine sand and shallow waters of quiet Agios Georgios Bay to the water sports and party atmosphere at Kavos. The island’s interior has villages and farms, plus olive and fruit trees.
