Holiday in Sidari

About Sidari

Sidari is located on the north coast of Corfu and is famous for the Canal d'Amour, one of the most romantic natural sites in all of Greece. A narrow sea channel winds through bizarrely shaped sandstone cliffs, with its turquoise water sparkling in the sun like a natural pool. According to legend, couples who swim through the canal together will find eternal love - a promise that attracts thousands of lovers from around the world every year. The rock formations around the Canal d'Amour have been shaped over millions of years by wind and waves from the soft sandstone, creating a labyrinth of bays, caves, and natural arches that invite exploration and snorkeling. From the cliffs above, there is a breathtaking panorama over the rocky landscape and the open Ionian Sea. Especially at sunset, when the warm light makes the golden rocks glow, the place reveals its full magic. In addition to the Canal d'Amour, Sidari offers several wide sandy beaches that gently slope into the sea, making them ideal for families with children. The main beach is well-organized with sunbeds and water sports offerings, while the smaller bays east of the canal provide quieter alternatives. The village itself has a vibrant tourist infrastructure with restaurants, bars, supermarkets, and souvenir shops, without losing its Greek character. Sidari is about 40 kilometers north of Corfu Town, which can be reached in just under an hour by car or bus. Day trips to the Diapontic Islands of Othoni, Erikoussa, and Mathraki are possible by boat and offer an authentic Greece away from any tourist paths. Corfu Airport is directly connected to numerous German airports, with a flight time of about two and a half hours.
