20 kilometers north from Corfu Town there is the Barbati Beach, a stretch yielding a spectacular scenery since it brings into a fortunate alliance the landscape marked by the towering Mount Pantokrator and the smooth seascape. Barbati is one of the blue flagged venues in Corfu, but besides this label which, in fact, covers a valuable quality of the beach, the venue takes pride in being 1000 meters long and one of the most popular in Corfu. No wonder, since it is fitted with plenty of water sports and boat hire facilities. In addition, its surroundings are dotted with sleeping and eating venues, which guarantees an almost constant concourse on the beach.
Another blue flagged beach in Corfu refers to the Komeno Beach which pertains to the municipality of Kerkyreon.
The Dassia Beach, still in the eastern side of Corfu, is a blue flagged pebbly stretch, being located a little northwards from Corfu Town, in the municipality of Feakon.
Trips from Corfu to Zakynthos (Zante). Zakynthos island is famous for its beaches - Laganas and Yerakas and also for Caretta Caretta turtles.
