Corfu, Paxí and Antipaxí

The lush Islands of Corfu, Paxí and Antipaxí, which lie between the
heel of Italy and the western part of mainland Greece, are the
northernmost islands in the Ionian archipelago. Corfu, the second
largest of the Ionians after Kefalloniá, is a curious mix of old and
new. Cosmopolitan resorts, such as Benítses and Sidári, with their
modern accommodation, busy bars and watersports facilities, dot
the island’s pretty coastline, while traditional villages cling to the
slopes of Mount Pantokrátor. The historic heart of the island’s capital,
Corfu Old Town has charm ing cobbled streets, ancient fort resses
and grand palaces. The smaller islands of Paxí and Antipaxí are
known for their natural beauty, pretty towns, bays and beaches.
