The Gardenos Beach is less famous among most of the visitors coming to Corfu in view of sunbathing. Nevertheless, it is worth discovering by those who enjoy isolated and less crowded sunbathing venues. As compared to other beaches on the island, it is also less endowed in terms of modern facilities, but this shortcoming is evened by the natural assets of the place: deep waters, velvety sand and its being located near a fresh water river.
Kassiopi beaches consist of rather pebbly stretches, but the fact that most of them are satisfactorily endowed with sports facilities and boat hiring beach.
From Corfu to Ithaca you can travel by ferry. Ithaca is the homeland of Odysseus, Greek mythical hero. The hotels on Ithaca island are in Vathi village.
The Paramonas Beach is yet another alternative for quiet getaways in the western side of Corfu.
