The beach, situated right behind Corfu Aquarium, boasts of the most stunning sunset views. Unlike the bustling main beach of Paleokastritsa, this one is relatively less crowded.

This petite pebbly inlet offers a refreshing change from the bustling Agios Spiridon. A cafeteria with a stunning vista of the beach, sunbeds, restrooms, and a compact changing area are all available. Despite the fact that a watersports platform is available, it detracts from the natural beauty of the area. The beach may be too bumpy for some, but it's a great spot for snorkeling. To the left, you can stroll along the rocky coastline and capture some fantastic photographs.

This beach is a charming little spot located across from the more popular Agios Spiridon beach. Although the entry can be rocky, the waters are crystal clear and perfect for snorkeling around the points. There are sunbeds and loungers available for use, and although parking is paid, there are plenty of spots to park. Additionally, boat rentals are offered for those interested.

The beach is pleasant, but the sunset in the evening is truly breathtaking. It costs 4€ to park next to the beach, but if you're only there for the sunset, parking is free. The view of the sunset from this spot is absolutely flawless and gorgeous.
