Corfu boasts yet another extremely valuable museum, namely, the Ionian Bank Museum of Banknotes. Its uniqueness consists of the fact that it is the only museum of this kind in the entire Greece. The museum takes pride in possessing the alleged oldest banknote in the world issued in China in 1300 AD, and a numerous display of other historic banknotes, as well as seals, coins, stamps, and various other items of documental importance.
The Paramonas Beach is yet another alternative for quiet getaways in the western side of Corfu.
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 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.
