Coastal villages and Ionian Sea in South East Corfu

Benitses

A Historic Seaside Village with a Modern Marina

ABOUT

Benitses is part of South East Corfu. An established south-east coastal destination combining a traditional village centre, marina, restaurants, accommodation and easy access to Corfu Town.

Benitses is an established seaside village south of Corfu Town with a long history of tourism as well as a recognisable traditional core. The marina, waterfront, restaurants and accommodation create a lively but manageable holiday base.

Its position makes it convenient for Corfu Town and central attractions while also giving straightforward access to the south-east coast. It is particularly well suited to visitors interested in beaches, couples, families, food & drink and marina & boating.

Getting there and practical information

Benitses is particularly easy to visit without a car, with Corfu City Bus line 6 and several southbound Green Buses using the coastal road. Free roadside parking and a parking area near the marina are available, although the centre is busiest in summer.
