A teeny resort on Corfu's busy east coast, Aghios Ioannis ticks all the boxes for a completely relaxing and laid back holiday - Greek style! It hardly features on the tourist radar as it is essentially a local village with stone houses and a way of life that has not changed in centuries... This is what holidays to Greece are all about.
Situated only 18 klms south of Corfu Town, Aghios Ioannis now hosts a fun family water park, Aqualand, which is very popular and the small beach has crystal clear waters and safe bathing.
This little Greek resort has only a handful of traditional tavernas which serve delicious Greek fare, but what better way to spend an evening than enjoy a long, leisurely dinner and perhaps a tincture of the local Ouzo to wash it down. By day, have a thick, sweet coffee in the tiny square and watch the world go by - slowly! Corfu holidays are designed for a complete chill-out.
Aer Lingus has direct flights from Shannon to Corfu and FlyShannon offers an excellent selection of hotels in Aghios Ioannis and the surrounding area. Greek holidays are always memorable for all the right reasons.
