The Definitive Acharavi Guide
|

Acharavi is situated on the northern tip of the Ionian Island of Corfu (Kerkyra). It has long since established itself as one of the top resorts on the North of Corfu and is particularly suited to couples and families. Around 40km from the airport, it takes about an hour to get into Acharavi. The scenery on the journey is stunning as you pass through the mountains and quaint old Greek villages.

The resort comprises a main road with about 8 roads all leading to the sand and shingle beach. The beach is particularly family-friendly as the water is shallow for about 50 metres into the sea. The main road and beach-front are littered with bars, restaurants, gift shops and supermarkets. |

One of Acharavi’s fun bars situated right in the centre of the resort is Planet Olivewood |

There is a roundabout in the centre of Acharavi called “The Pump” because this is where the village pump used to be and where the Pumphouse restaurant is today. A road leads from the roundabout into the old village of Acharavi. This is often missed but well worth a stroll as there are more bars and restaurants and older more traditional buildings.
Such is the popularity of Acharavi that many people have been returning to the resort for years and years and have witnessed it change from a small village to what it is today. Some people have even moved here permanently to live in and around the village. |
