Alykes Potamos Things To Do

Located in one of Corfu’s most picaresque locations Alykes Potamos boasts one of the island’s most beautiful beaches. The beach here has been awarded the prestigious Blue Flag status for the clarity of its waters and its breathtaking views. This is charming safe beach that will be ideal for couples and families with young children.

 

The beauty of a holiday in Alykes Potamos is that it is located on the outskirts of Corfu Town. This vibrant town mixes the best of traditional Greece in the Old Town with the chic restaurants, bars, and nightclubs of the New Town. Corfu Town is also the starting point for numerous cruises around Corfu and beyond.

 

Cruises from Alykes Potamos are a holiday highlights. Holiday makers can take the one day cruise from Corfu Town to the mysterious and exotic Albania or spend the day visiting Greek islands such as Paxos and Anti Paxos. Glass bottom boat cruises are also available to view the wonders hidden beneath the Ionian Sea. Alternatively holiday makers can hire motor boats and cruise around Corfu at their leisure.

As you would expect from an island with an all year round sunny climate there are plenty of sports activities to enjoy in Alykes Potamos. Hiking, walking, cycling, horse riding, tennis and golf are just a few of the land sports available. Water sports lovers can try their hand at windsurfing, sailing, jet-skiing and scuba diving in the crystal clear waters.

 

As the sun sets over the Ionian Sea the taverns, restaurants and bars become the focus of the evening’s entertainment. There is a good range of traditional tavernas and restaurants in Alykes Potamos but for nightlife that is second to none head over to Corfu Town’s Old Town area and mix with the locals in the atmospheric Greek restaurants and nightclubs.
