Sidari Holidays
Sidari, the largest resort in northern Corfu, is lively and bustling and a popular choice for those looking for a family package holiday. Still developing, Sidari has gradually merged with the neighbouring resort of Canal D'Amour, creating one long expanse of sweeping sandy beach and two smaller ones, and the two former fishing villages now offer a large commercial resort, popular with the British, with plenty of convenient facilities and nightlife.
