Good to Know

  • Spring and autumn (Easter through mid-June) are particularly good for visiting with pleasant climate, relatively uncrowded beaches, and cheaper accommodations
  • Unlike other Greek islands, Corfu does not experience the strong Meltemi wind, resulting in calmer seas ideal for sailing but also making summer heat feel more humid and 'heavy'
  • The northern region dominated by Mount Pantokrator experiences more frequent localized rainfall and cooler nights, while the southern plains are generally flatter and slightly drier
