The Sea Shell Museum is a rather interesting presence in the abundant offer of such establishments in Corfu. Its asset consists of underwater findings covering the regions of the Mediterranean Sea, the Pacific and the Indian Oceans, and they refer to shells, fossils, preserved fish, snakes, and sharks, corals and sponges, just to mention a few. The fact that the museum was awarded by the IREDA Research Institute in Italy ascertains the value of this establishment.
The Archeological Museum of Corfu Town impresses, the many archeological exhibits aside, by its famous Gorgon Medusa statue and other works of art in Greece
Given its location in the Ionian Sea, Corfu – which is the northernmost of all significant Ionian Island – makes possible trips to Albania (port of Saranda)
When it comes to beaches extremely closely located to Corfu Town, the Gouvia Beach must not be overlooked.
