Corfu
The Ionian’s Emperial Green
Where Venetian grace meets lush Mediterranean abundance
Corfu is layered—culturally, visually, emotionally. It’s an island of olive-laden hills and turquoise coves, of baroque campaniles and fortress walls, of citrus groves and bougainvillea spilling over stone balconies. Venetian, French, and British influences linger in its architecture and temperament, yet its heart beats to a Greek rhythm—warm, unhurried, and deeply generous.
From the UNESCO-listed Old Town to secluded beaches framed by cypress forests, from stately estates to mountain villages, Corfu offers both aristocratic charm and barefoot ease. It’s an island to wander without agenda, knowing beauty will find you.

👁️ See
Emerald slopes tumbling into cobalt bays.
Fortresses crowning the Old Town, pastel façades with green shutters, sailboats in Gouvia Marina, the monastery of Paleokastritsa rising from a headland of pine.
👃 Smell
Olive wood smoke and orange blossom.
Salt spray in the morning air, rosemary growing wild along stone paths, the aroma of baking kumquat pastries.
👂 Hear
Church bells and café chatter.
The echo of footsteps along Liston’s arcades. Waves brushing shingle beaches. The strains of a mandolin drifting from a courtyard.
👅 Taste
Rich, sun-shaped, Venetian-touched.
Pastitsada with slow-braised rooster, bourdeto spiced with paprika, sofrito in white wine and garlic, sweet kumquat liqueur.
✋ Touch
Textures of a storied island.
Worn brass doorknockers, weathered olive trunks, handwoven lace in a village square, the polished wood of an old fishing boat.
🧠 Feel
Cool marble underfoot in a shaded alley.
The warmth of terracotta walls in late afternoon sun. The stillness of a hidden cove, the gentle rustle of leaves in a palace garden.
