Couples seeking a romantic getaway, families enjoying a leisurely day out, and solo adventurers eager to explore will all find something to love on board our luxury vessel. Consider this cruise a perfect complement to a full-day Corfu adventure.

Discover the Charm of Corfu Town (Kerkyra) – A UNESCO World Heritage Site

After a scenic cruise along the Ionian coast, the boat docks near the heart of Corfu Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site celebrated for its Venetian architecture, winding cobbled streets, and rich multicultural history. You’ll have ample free time to explore the town at your own pace, whether you’re passionate about history, shopping, food, or photography.

Stroll along the iconic Liston Promenade, inspired by Paris’s Rue de Rivoli, and savor a coffee in one of the elegant cafes beneath the arches. Marvel at the imposing Old Fortress with its panoramic views of the sea and town, or visit the magnificent Saint Spyridon Church, home to the relics of Corfu’s patron saint. For a deeper historical dive, consider exploring the Achilleion Palace (external link, nofollow) after your cruise; it’s easily accessible by bus from Corfu Town.

Immerse Yourself in Local Culture and Shopping

Corfu Town is a shopper’s paradise, filled with charming boutiques, artisan workshops, souvenir shops, and bustling open-air markets. Discover unique treasures, from exquisite olive wood carvings and delicate lace to locally produced honey, fragrant kumquat liqueur, and hand-painted ceramics. It’s the perfect opportunity to find a special memento of your Corfu adventure.

Food, Cafes, and Authentic Corfiot Atmosphere

No visit to Corfu Town is complete without indulging in its culinary delights. Take advantage of the opportunity to dine at a traditional taverna or sample delicious street food such as souvlaki or bougatsa. For a sweet treat, try the local specialty, mandolato nougat, or enjoy a scoop of the island’s delectable gelato, served in one of the town’s many ice cream parlors.

Whether you’re enjoying a fresh seafood lunch by the harbor or sipping a refreshing frappe in a shaded square, you’ll be immersed in the laid-back yet vibrant rhythm of Greek island life. It’s a truly unforgettable experience.

Departure & Return – Relaxed and Rejuvenated

After several hours of independent exploration in Corfu Town, we’ll regroup at the harbor and depart at 14:30 for a tranquil return sail along the coast. This final leg of the journey offers a last chance to soak in the breathtaking sea views, capture some memorable photos, or simply relax as the sun begins its gentle descent.

You’ll return to your starting point refreshed, inspired, and filled with lasting memories of a day well spent on one of Greece’s most iconic islands. If you need transportation to or from the port, rent a car with us for convenient travel.
