Almyros-Corfu

Almyros-Corfu

Things to do - general

Almyros is part of Acharavi, an unspoiled countryside area, with an amazing beach and hiking facilities.

Acharavi is situated on the northern part of Corfu (Kerkyra).

It comprises a main road (the commercial center of the North) with plenty of restaurants, bars, shops, supermarkets and a bank. Leading off the main road, various side roads end up at the beach, just around 10 minutes walk.

It has been established itself as one of the top resorts on the North of Corfu and is particularly suited to couples and families due to the wonderful beach and facilities provided.

It is around 40km from the airport and it takes about an hour to get into Acharavi. The scenery on the journey is stunning as this is through the mountain and quaint old Greek villages.

The roundabout in the center of Acharavi is called “The Pump”, because this one used to be the village pump.

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 in there.

Should someone wish can continue this road and drive up to the top of mount Pantokrator through unspoiled villages and nature.

Sports & nature

Diving holidays is a popular water sport with local excursions available such as wreck, reef, and cave diving for beginners and more experienced divers. In the center of Acharavi is Corfu Diving Center and Adonis will be happy to book you on next day’s activities. Theme parks are a good place to spend an afternoon and Hydropolis Water Park is a very nice place to chill out. Boasting giant water slides, lazy rivers, and a fully equipped outdoor gym with tennis courts, Hydropolis water park guarantees excitement for adults and children. Walks through unspoiled trails to the top of mount Pantokrator or to the various small tardiitional vilages and settlements can only be a joy.Sports and nature image
