Imagine being amidst the confluence of history, nature, and culture. That's Corfu for you – a picturesque Stage set in the Ionian Sea and a part of the Ionian Islands. Remarkable for its associations with the ancient Battle of Sybota, Corfu was a pivotal player in the Peloponnesian War. This island, known for its impregnable medieval castles, stood as a bulwark against the Ottoman Empire under Venetian rule, and as a British stronghold before being ceded to Greece in 1864.

Brush up your history knowledge while exploring the birthplace of Ioannis Kapodistrias, the first governor of independent Greece in Corfu's principal city, which shares the same name as the island. Here you'll also find the Ionian University, whispering tales of the island's rich past. But it isn't just history that Corfu boasts; the island is a treasure trove of biodiversity. Over 1,800 plant species, varied bird and animal species, an expansive coastline of 217 kilometres and the towering Mount Pantokrator embellish this versatile island, creating a diversified panorama that captivates all who visit.
