Glyfada Corfu – Justifiably famous
Glyfada beach is justifiably one of the most famous in Greece. An immense beach of soft sand and for the most part sloping safely and gradually to an intensely blue Ionian Sea. Famous tall rocks are a favourite diving point for the more adventurous. The beach is the obvious attraction of Glyfada resort.
Glyfada – Something for everyone
Glyfada offers excellent facilities for water sport fans, golfers and walkers alike. Water sports in Glyfada include waterskiing, sailing, windsurfing, jet skis and canoeing. Volleyball is popular on the beach and golfers will enjoy a nearby golf course. If you can drag yourself away from the stunning Glyfada beach there are ample walking opportunities in the beautiful scenery surrounding. You will find cliffs, inland hills and coastal strolls.
Great beach in beautiful countryside
Glyfada is a small village 12 miles west of Corfu Town and airport, with a privileged setting on a huge bay on the stunning west coast of Corfu amidst hills, cliffs and pine trees. It is a trendy popular resort but small enough to have a traditional feel with atmospheric tavernas and bars. Glyfada is lively enough but nothing too raucous. Your holidays here could also include trips to Corfu Town, the traditional village of Pelekas, golf at Ermines or an excursion to attractive quiet Miriotissa bay with its monastery. But with a beach like Glyfada you may want to do nothing more than enjoy the sand, sea, cliff top views and spectacularly colourful sunrising. |
