Corfu

Corfu doesn't look like the rest of Greece — and that's the point. The island is impossibly green, with cypress and olive groves reaching all the way down to the water. Wander the Venetian Old Town where the architecture feels more Italian than Greek, grab a ginger beer at a shaded piazza, and eat slow-cooked pastitsada at a backstreet taverna the tourists haven't found yet. On the water, the west coast delivers — Paleokastritsa's layered bays are worth a full morning, and the towering cliffs at Cape Drastis look like they belong in a film. A boat rental in Corfu also puts Paxos and Antipaxos within a half-day sail — two tiny islands with some of the clearest water in the Mediterranean. Lush, layered, and a little unexpected — Corfu is the Ionian at its most rewarding.
