The Yacht Marina is a beautiful place very close to our apartments. You will find a couple of restaurants ( Olympia looks more fancy than the taverns in the village) , also several cafeterias and bars looking at the sea and the sailboats. It's a perfect choice for a drink in the evening if you don't want to drive .

This in an artificial village , built to be a reproduction of a traditional village. It is now used to film movies or host weddings but also possible to visit. You can stroll around, visit the museums where you can see how the houses where furnished and equipped, how they made the olive oil, how they stored their food etc. Nice cafeneion for a refreshment but the souvenir shops could have been more authentic. Still, the palce is beautiful and worth visiting .

If you love animals, visit the donkey resque in Doukades. Donkeys are not to be seen very commonly in Corfu any longer and you will support a goog cause. In addition, you can visit the village of Doukades and have lunch in any of the three tavernas in the centre of the village. Beautiful !
