Corfu is a Greek island, the most northern and second largest area among the Ionian Islands and one of the most popular tourist destinations in Greece.

The northeast coast has been greatly improved by British travel companies with the construction of large, expensive holiday villas.

Hotels are located along the coast of the island. Among the most popular tourist destinations: in the south-east of the island, the town of Kavos, focused on youth recreation, Paleokastritsa in the north-west and Perama, a few kilometers south of the capital, from where one of the best and most famous views on the coast opens, to Vlaherna Monastery and islet of Pontikonisi.

The island is a popular pilgrimage destination for Orthodox Christians and Catholics, since the relics of the saints Spyridon of Trimythous and Blessed Theodora, as well as the apostles “from seventy” Jason and Sosipatra reside in the temples of the island. Easter on the island is considered one of the most magnificent in Greece, accompanied by religious processions, parades of orchestras, nightly pyrotechnic performances, etc.
