Set in the rolling green hills of northwest Corfu, Pagoi is a sleepy, traditional village with a unique claim to international fame. This charming, authentic village was a key filming location for the heart-pounding car chase in the 1981 James Bond film, ‘For Your Eyes Only’. Today, it remains a peaceful, working village, largely untouched by tourism. A visit offers a glimpse into authentic Corfiot life, stunning valley views, and a fun photo opportunity for film buffs, all while serving as the gateway to the magnificent beach of Agios Georgios Pagon.
