Overview: Discovering Peroulades

Perched on the dramatic north-western tip of Corfu, Peroulades is a traditional village celebrated for its breathtaking coastal scenery. It is world-renowned for Loggas Beach, a unique sliver of sand at the base of colossal vertical cliffs, and for offering one of the most awe-inspiring sunset views on the island. The village itself is quiet and charming, but its clifftop has become a magnet for romantics and photographers seeking the unforgettable spectacle of the sun dipping into the Ionian Sea.

How to Get to Peroulades

Drive Yourself (Essential)

A car is essential for reaching Peroulades. Be prepared for very busy roads and limited parking in the hour before sunset during high season.

Public Transport

The A2 bus to Sidari gets you close, but from there it’s a long walk or a short taxi ride to Peroulades.

Book a Taxi or Transfer

A taxi is a great option for a sunset visit, allowing you to enjoy a drink without worrying about the drive back in the dark.


In-Depth Guide & Details

Location & Getting Around Peroulades

Peroulades is in the far northwest, 38 km from Corfu Town. The drive takes about an hour.

  • Parking: There is a designated car park on the clifftop which fills up very quickly before sunset.
  • Accessibility: The clifftop bars are accessible. The staircase down to Loggas Beach is steep and not suitable for those with mobility issues.

Key Attractions & Features
  • Loggas Beach: A narrow strip of sand beneath immense, sheer clay cliffs. Accessible via a steep staircase, it’s famous for its therapeutic clay and dramatic setting.
  • Sunset Viewpoints: The main draw. Several famous bars and restaurants are built on the cliff edge, some with glass viewing platforms, providing a front-row seat to the daily spectacle.
  • Cape Drastis: A short distance away is this stunningly beautiful, wild headland with unique white rock formations, best viewed from the sea.
  • The Traditional Village: The heart of Peroulades, set back from the cliffs, is a peaceful and authentic Corfiot village with a historic church and quiet lanes.
Amenities & What to Expect
The amenities in Peroulades are concentrated on the clifftop to serve the sunset crowds. Here you will find several well-known restaurants and cafe-bars. In the village itself, there are a few traditional tavernas and a mini-market. For a wider array of services, the resort of Sidari is less than a 10-minute drive away.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it essential to book a table for sunset?

Yes, if you want a front-row table at one of the popular clifftop bars (like 7th Heaven) in high season, booking in advance is highly recommended. Otherwise, you should arrive very early.

Can you swim at Loggas Beach?

Yes, but the beach is very narrow and can almost disappear at high tide, leaving little space to sit. The main attraction is the scenery rather than a traditional beach day. The walk back up the stairs is also very strenuous.

Is it safe to walk on the cliffs?

No. The cliffs are made of soft, eroding clay. You must stay within the designated viewing areas of the bars and restaurants and behind any safety railings. Do not walk near the cliff edge.
