Perched dramatically on a sheer cliff above the northwest coast of Corfu, Angelokastro is one of the island’s most important Byzantine fortresses. Built as early as the 5th–7th centuries, it formed part of a defensive network and was never conquered despite repeated sieges. The ruins crown a rugged peak near Paleokastritsa, offering sweeping views across the Ionian Sea. Access involves a steep but rewarding climb from the nearby village of Krini.
Angelokastro is a Byzantine castle on the island of Corfu, Greece. It is located at the top of the highest peak of the island's shoreline in the northwest coast near Palaiokastritsa and built on particularly precipitous and rocky terrain. It stands 1,000 ft (305 m) on a steep cliff above the sea and surveys the City of Corfu and the mountains of mainland Greece to the southeast and a wide area of Corfu toward the northeast and northwest.

A fair-sized resort dominated by British tourists. At one end of the beach is the "Canal de l'Amour": sand stone cliffs with narrow inlets, a natural archway and small paths to explore.
A narrow stony beach with relatively calm waters. The resort runs along the road so there's a good variety of shops and tavernas.
Crystal clear!
