Sidari is perhaps the best known of the resorts on the North coast of Corfu, and has grown up around two fishing villages, set in a bay and surrounded by wooded hills. Sidari has a long sandy beach flanked by smaller sand and shingle beaches either side. This Blue Flag beach shelves gently into the warm sea making it an excellent beach for swimming and a safe one for children to go paddling. Water sports are also available for the more energetic! Sidari offers a lively atmosphere with plenty of tavernas, restaurants and bars open late into the night. This good-sized resort also provides plenty of shops and amenties. Those seeking a quieter more authentic Greek experience will enjoy discovering tavernas in nearby villages and on beaches along this beautiful coastline. Beach lovers will enjoy this lovely coastline, which has plenty of hidden and secluded beaches. The Canal d'Amour, a channel calved into the sandstone cliff by the sea, is a popular attraction.
