🌿 Postcard from Corfu: Greece’s Emerald Escape 🇬🇷

If you’re dreaming of a place where turquoise waters meet olive-draped hills, Corfu is calling your name. We just got back from this stunning Ionian island, and it was everything we hoped for — and then some. The island feels like a blend of Venetian elegance, Greek warmth, and endless natural beauty. Highlights: ✨ Old Town Magic – Wandering through Corfu Town is like stepping into a Mediterranean fairytale. Cobbled alleyways, pastel-colored buildings with wrought-iron balconies, and that romantic Venetian charm around every corner. Don’t miss the Liston Promenade for a coffee and some prime people-watching. 🌊 Beach Bliss – Paleokastritsa was the star of the show for us. Crystal-clear waters perfect for snorkeling, framed by lush cliffs. We also loved Glyfada for its golden sands and Agios Georgios Pagon for its laid-back vibes. 🏞️ Scenic Drives & Olive Groves – Rent a car or scooter and get lost (in the best way) in Corfu’s winding mountain roads. The drive to Kaiser’s Throne is worth it for panoramic sunset views. On the way, we passed countless ancient olive trees and sleepy villages that seem untouched by time. 🍴 Flavors to Remember – Corfiot food is a dream. Think rich pastitsada (slow-cooked beef with pasta), fresh seafood, and local wine. One night, we dined under the stars at a family-run taverna in the hills — pure magic. 🌅 Sunsets & Serenity – Whether from a clifftop monastery or your beach towel, Corfu’s sunsets are unforgettable. The colors reflecting off the Ionian Sea are something you have to see to believe. ⸻ Corfu has this way of making you slow down, breathe deeply, and appreciate the little moments — a shared laugh over ouzo, a dip in the sea, or the sound of cicadas at dusk. It’s not just a destination, it’s a feeling. Already dreaming of going back. 💙 #corfu #greekislands #travelgreece #islandvibes #wanderlust #mediterraneanmagic #summerescape
