The Archeological Museum impresses, the many archeological exhibits aside, by its famous Gorgon Medusa statue, which is said to be one of the best preserved archaic works of art in the entire Greece. All items displayed are findings ascertained to date back from Antiquity, more precisely, from the Archaic, Classical, Hellenistic and Roman periods, so a visit to this museum is a complementary manner of spending good quality time in Corfu.
Paleokastritsa is, by far, the jewel beach resort on the west coast of Corfu island. Its main attractions are the blue flagged beaches and water sports.
The Agios Spyridon Beach (also referred to as the Perithia Beach) is unique in Corfu by its proximity to a fresh water lake.
As far as northwestern beaches go, the Sidari Beach, part of the homonymous resort, is said to be the most impressive of all, which is why it is so highly frequented.
