Corfu, Greece
Seven golden days await you on this emerald jewel of the Ionian. Based in the tranquil haven of Agios Georgios, each morning brings a new secluded shore to discover — from the dramatic cliffs of Porto Timoni to the turquoise whispers of Halikounas. Let the island breathe life into your soul, one unhurried beach day at a time. Day 1 (Aug 13): Settle in & explore Agios Georgios beach — a long, peaceful stretch of golden sand right on your doorstep, perfect for easing into island time. Day 2 (Aug 14): Head north to Porto Timoni — a breathtaking double bay accessible by a short hike, rewarding you with two pristine coves of crystalline water virtually untouched by crowds. Day 3 (Aug 15): Visit Rovinia Beach — a secluded pebble bay framed by lush green hills and only reachable by boat or a scenic footpath, offering pure seclusion and calm azure waters. Day 4 (Aug 16): Explore Mirtiotissa Beach — famously described by Lawrence Durrell as 'perhaps the loveliest beach in the world,' nestled beneath olive-covered cliffs with a wonderfully laid-back atmosphere. In the afternoon, wander down to Glyfada Beach, a beautiful sandy bay with gentle waves ideal for a late-day swim. Day 5 (Aug 17): Discover Limni Korission Lagoon & Halikounas Beach — a wild, windswept stretch bordering a protected nature lagoon, where flamingos wade and solitude reigns supreme. Day 6 (Aug 18): Journey to Paleokastritsa — visit the quieter monastery bay in the early morning before the day-trippers arrive, then take a boat trip to the secret sea caves and hidden grottoes carved into the cliffs. Day 7 (Aug 19): Spend a final, unhurried day back at Agios Georgios — swim in the warm Ionian waters, sip a cold Mythos as the sun melts into the horizon, and let the island whisper its farewell. Depart Aug 20.
