Sidari

Beaches, Canal d'Amour & a Lively Holiday Atmosphere

ABOUT

Sidari is one of the largest holiday resorts in northern Corfu, with a broad range of restaurants, bars, accommodation and visitor services. Its coastline is especially well known for the sculpted sandstone formations around Canal d'Amour.

The resort suits visitors who want plenty happening within walking distance, while Peroulades and Cape Drastis provide easy opportunities to see a more scenic and quieter side of the surrounding area.

Choose the part of Sidari that suits you

Sidari combines the main resort beaches and evening venues with the distinct coastal formations around Canal d'Amour. Compare accommodation by its exact setting: being close to the entertainment can be convenient, while a different position may better suit earlier nights. Ask the host about neighbouring venues rather than treating the whole resort as equally noisy.

Making room for the coastline

Plan some time beyond the nearest sunbed, but check the current route and conditions around the rock formations instead of assuming every photographed spot is easy to reach. Seasonal entertainment varies by venue; quizzes, karaoke or Greek nights advertised by one business do not describe every evening across Sidari. If using A2 buses, check the last return before a late meal. For a coastal excursion, select one additional stop rather than trying to fit all the north-west viewpoints into a single afternoon.
