San Stefanos
San Stefanos lies along the winding coastal road between the villages of Arillas and Avliotes, about an hour’s drive north of Corfu Town. Despite being one of the most popular holiday spots in the Med, it’s still a friendly little fishing village at heart. Traditional whitewashed houses mingle with stylish hotels and holiday villas, sandwiched between a sandy, horseshoe-shaped bay on one side, and rolling olive hills on the other. And because the village sits right on the edge of Corfu’s north-west corner, it gets some of the best sunsets on the island.
Peroulades
Peroulades is not a resort but an ancient Greek village, wrapped in a time warp, however there is some accommodation available. A small village with tiny Greek houses, and as you leave the village and head for the famous sunset beach (Loggas Beach) you catch glimpses of the most stunning panoramic views on the island of Corfu. Peroulades is away from the noisy resorts, being at the most North Westerley part of the island, and there are many fantastic walks in the area.
Cape Drastis
The Cape ``Drastis`` is hidden within a beautiful wooded landscape in the North Block of Corfu and specifically in the traditional village of Peroulades. Access is relatively easy with any vehicle, even by foot for the more athletic types!
Once you get to Peroulades' main square just follow the signs! If you face any difficulty in finding it, the locals are always willing to help you! Just ask a local villager to guide you.

Kastelli Twin Beaches
Most of you definitely have not seen it; the diving lovers certainly know it better than everyone. Blue-green waters where when you get close to the coast they become pale blue and literally almost transparent with wonderful white sand. The reason for one of the most beautiful beaches of Greece, Kastelli! In a limestone-high Iakenus limestone environment where shale-limestone formations and alternations of tiles will amaze you as the mountain stands up to the sky making toys with the sediments and rocks!

Diapolo Corfu
Diapolo is one of the islets you will see in the open sea of the beach of the village Arillas in north-western Corfu. It is the old Gaidouronisi (island of donkeys) which perhaps the elderly still remember because it is the place where even donkeys lived. Today in Diapolo it is possible that you may see wild goats.
A small but, heavenly beach in the south-western part of Diapolo awaits you to enjoy a dip in the clean waters of the Adriatic Sea. In order to reach Diapolo, you must own a boat or rent one from Arillas beach – the distance is quite short.
