BOOK YOUR PALEOKASTRITSA TRIPTHE PALEOKASTRITSA COAST
A SCENIC SIDE OF CORFU YOU SHOULD NOT MISS
Paleokastritsa brings together high green hills, clear water, and a string of small caves and coves that are best reached by boat. Further north, Porto Timoni pairs two quiet bays with a striking viewpoint on the edge of the water.
This is a calmer, more scenic side of the island, and it suits couples, families, and small groups who want swim stops, coastal views, and time away from the busier beaches. If your dates fall in high season, it is worth reserving early, as the best boats and time slots go first.

THE JOURNEY
TWO STOPS THAT DEFINE THE WEST COAST
Every trip pairs the two signatures of this coastline: the bays and caves of Paleokastritsa, and the twin bays of Porto Timoni.
THE BAYS AND CAVES OF PALEOKASTRITSA
Paleokastritsa is the west-coast bay-and-caves area, where high green hills drop to clear water and small caves and coves string along the shore. It is a coastline made for slow cruising and swim stops.
THE TWIN BAYS OF PORTO TIMONI
Near Afionas, Porto Timoni is the famous twin-bay viewpoint and beaches: two bays facing opposite directions, separated by a narrow strip of land. Swim in the calm water or take in the viewpoint above.
Routes and swim stops depend on sea conditions on the day, so the skipper shapes the final plan with you.
