Astrakeri Beach is a slice of authentic, old-school Corfu. Centred around a small, working fishing harbour, this quiet and charming spot offers a glimpse into the island’s more traditional coastal life. It’s less of a resort beach and more of a tranquil retreat, renowned for its calm, shallow waters and, most importantly, its fantastic seaside tavernas serving the freshest fish imaginable. If you’re looking to escape the crowds and enjoy a peaceful meal with your feet almost in the sand, Astrakeri is a hidden gem.
