6Corfu – A Green Jewel in the Ionian

Corfu’s Venetian, French, and British influences give it a unique charm that shines in the off season. The Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is quieter and easier to enjoy without the cruise ship crowds. Its narrow lanes, fortresses, and pastel-colored houses take on a romantic atmosphere in cooler weather.

Winter in Corfu is mild and often festive, with locals celebrating Carnival with lively parades and traditions. Spring brings a burst of color, especially during the famous Orthodox Easter celebrations, when the island hosts some of the most spectacular festivities in Greece.
