Megas Choros Beach

A quiet, sandy and largely undeveloped beach in the Kritika area, suited to visitors looking for space and solitude.

Megas Choros Beach has a sand shoreline. Rural local-road access; exact final approach should be rechecked before publishing directions.

The beach is essentially unorganised. There are no dependable food or drink facilities at the shoreline.

What to expect

The shoreline is predominantly sand. The sandy sections are comfortable for anyone planning to spend several hours on the beach. The generous stretch of shoreline gives you more room to spread out than at Corfu's smaller coves and makes it a good option if you enjoy beach walks as well as swimming.

Swimming and sea conditions

The open setting leaves the beach more exposed to changes in wind and sea conditions.

Who this beach suits

This beach is particularly well suited to a quieter beach day, nature lovers and swimming. Its quieter character is part of the appeal, particularly if you want to get away from the island's busier resort beaches.

Facilities

This is essentially an unorganised beach, so it suits visitors who are happy with a simpler, more natural setup. Do not rely on finding sunbed hire, so bringing your own towel, shade or beach umbrella can be worthwhile. There are no dependable food or drink facilities right on the shoreline, so take water and anything else you may need.

Getting there and practical information

Rural local-road access; exact final approach should be rechecked before publishing directions.

Planning your visit

Early morning or later afternoon is a particularly good time to enjoy the quieter atmosphere and softer light. Because refreshments are limited, bring drinking water and anything else you are likely to need before making the final approach.

Is it the right beach for you?

Choose it if peace, scenery and a more natural shoreline matter more to you than organised facilities. Check the sea conditions when you arrive, particularly on windier days.
