Ionian Islands
The northern Ionian Islands offer a greener, softer Greece than the Aegean. Corfu blends Venetian, French, and British heritage with cypress-lined beaches and turquoise coves like Paleokastritsa. Tiny Paxos and Antipaxos southward deliver intimate harbors, olive groves, and some of the clearest swimming water in the Mediterranean.
