Where can you go?

The Carel is ideal for coastal exploration around Corfu — hidden beaches, quiet bays, and waterfront tavernas you can only reach by sea. We recommend staying within 5 nautical miles for first-timers.

 

Paleokastritsa & the sea caves

One of Corfu’s most iconic spots — turquoise water, dramatic rock formations, and sea caves you can swim right into.

Agios Gordios

A long sandy beach framed by towering cliffs — anchor offshore and jump in. Quieter than you’d expect.

Liapades Bay

Shallow, calm, and crystal clear — ideal for kids, snorkelling, and long lazy afternoons with nowhere to be.

Ermones & Myrtiotissa beach

Two neighbouring beaches with a completely different feel — one lively, one secluded. Both worth the trip.
