A Greek Hidden Gem Harbour Village

Kassiopi is a lively village located on the northeast coast of Corfu, a Greek island in the Ionian Sea. The village sits on a small peninsula that juts into the water, giving it a special position that looks out over the sea towards the coast of Albania. This location has made it important throughout history, first as an ancient Greek and Roman port. The village today is built around a lovely, natural harbor where fishing boats and small yachts are tied up. The port area is the center of life, with a curved line of tavernas, cafes, and shops running along the waterfront. This is the main place for visitors and local people to gather and enjoy a meal or a drink by the water. Just above the village, the ruins of a Byzantine fortress, Kassiopi Castle, sit on the headland. #mediterranean
