      Staying at Black Rocks places you perfectly to explore the wonders of the Emerald Island. From majestic palaces to turquoise bays, here are the absolute must-visit landmarks for your 2026 Corfu holiday. 1. The Historic Old Town (UNESCO World Heritage Site) Step into a living museum.

Paleokastrita & Angelokastro Often called the "Jewel of Corfu," Paleokastrita features six stunning emerald bays.

The processions of the Epitaphioi (decorated biers) wind through the narrow kantounia alleys. The atmosphere is hauntingly beautiful as the island`s world-class Philharmonic Bands perform funeral marches by Albinoni, Chopin, and Verdi, echoing off the historic stone walls. The "Botides" Tradition (Holy Saturday, 11:00 AM) Prepare for the "First Resurrection"—the loudest tradition in Greece! As the bells ring at 11:00 AM, thousands of clay jars (Botides) are hurled from the red-draped balconies of the Liston onto the streets below.

Visit the 13th-century Theotokos Monastery on the hilltop, and then hike up to Angelokastro, a Byzantine castle perched on a rugged cliff 300 meters above the sea. It is one of the most impressive vantage points in Greece. 5. Canal d¢Amour (The Channel of Love) Located in Sidari, this unique geological formation features sculpted sandstone cliffs and turquoise tunnels. Legend has it that couples who swim through the channel together will stay in love forever. 6. Authentic Village Experiences For a taste of old-world Corfu, visit Old Perithia, a "ghost village" on the slopes of Mt. Pantokrator, or the traditional village of Pelekas, famous for the Kaiser¢s Throne—the best sunset spot on the island.

    • Easter in Corfu: A Symphony of Tradition & Color

      Experience the most famous Easter celebration in Greece, where Venetian elegance meets Byzantine tradition. Corfu (Kerkyra) offers a multi-sensory journey that transforms the island into a living stage of music, flowers, and ancient customs. The Highlights of the Holy Week The Melodic Good Friday As dusk falls, the UNESCO-protected Old Town is bathed in purple light. The processions of the Epitaphioi (decorated biers) wind through the narrow kantounia alleys. The atmosphere is hauntingly beautiful as the island`s world-class Philharmonic Bands perform funeral marches by Albinoni, Chopin, and Verdi, echoing off the historic stone walls. The "Botides" Tradition (Holy Saturday, 11:00 AM) Prepare for the "First Resurrection"—the loudest tradition in Greece! As the bells ring at 11:00 AM, thousands of clay jars (Botides) are hurled from the red-draped balconies of the Liston onto the streets below. This spectacular custom symbolizes the casting away of bad luck and the triumph of life over death. Be sure to take a small piece of a broken jar home for good luck! The Grand Resurrection Night On Holy Saturday night, the Spianada—the largest square in the Balkans—fills with thousands of people holding flickering candles (lambades). When "Christos Anesti" (Christ is Risen) is proclaimed, the sky explodes with a world-class firework display, while the bands march through the city playing joyous, upbeat marches. Gastronomy: The Taste of Corfu Greek Easter is a feast for the palate. While staying on the island, don¢t miss: Fogatsa: The local brioche-style Easter bread with a hint of bergamot. Colombina: A dove-shaped cake with Venetian roots. Tsitsibira: Corfu¢s famous ginger beer, the perfect refreshing accompaniment to your walks.
