Corfu, the princess of the Ionian Islands is unlike any place in Greece. Its unique history which saw it fall under Venetian and British rule for long periods has made it a melting pot of Greek, Italian, English and French cultures. These influences can be seen in the Renaissance and Georgian architecture of the main town.

Its lush beauty meanwhile, stands in sharp contrast to the stark-white character of the Aegean Islands. There are many stylish resorts throughout the island with amazing beaches sheltered sandy bays and secluded coves.
