Spiros Beach Paleokastritsa

Spiros Beach is a sand and pebble beach in a bay along the Corfu coast with turquoise water, surrounded by thick Mediterranean vegetation and rock formations. The bay is sheltered by hills on several sides, which creates a natural protection from the open sea.

The bay served for many centuries as a natural harbor for local fishing boats and merchant ships crossing the Ionian Sea. This role as an anchorage shaped the economic development of nearby settlements over a long period.

The tavernas here serve fish caught daily and prepared in traditional island recipes, reflecting how much the community has always depended on the sea. This way of eating and living continues today and shapes what visitors experience during their time at the beach.

The beach offers rental services for umbrellas, sunbeds, showers, and restrooms, plus water sports facilities, with restaurants and shops nearby. Come early in the day to find a good spot, especially during peak season.

The water in the bay stays colder than at other island beaches because underwater currents constantly bring in cooler water. Swimmers will notice this temperature difference quickly, making the bay more pleasant for longer swims during summer.
