Sidari (Corfu)

Sidari was one of the stops on our road trip along the northern coast of Corfu. It is a touristic beach town with lots of souvenir shops and tavernas advertising “free swimming pool” for customers. Our main focus in this stop was to see the “canal d’amour” (last set of photos/videos). But it was overly crowded so we stayed long enough to get some photos and that’s it.

Before we got to this spot, we discovered a little, more secluded canal called Apotripi Beach where we hung out for a couple hours. Vincent and I swam all the way to “mermaid’s rock” (pictured in the third photo, the rock formation on the left). That was enough for me to enjoy the view and the accomplishment.. of course Vincent then swam to the rock on the right and he said the view of all the cliffs from there was amazing.

The other towns we visited today were: Agios Giorgios (beach town, although not as touristy), beach Kalami (nothing special, and the road there was narrow, windy, and bumpy), and Ipsos (looks like young and hip beach town.. could have spent a night here had we done more research)Read more
