Canal D'Amour, Ionian Islands, Greece

4.0 (4.495 reviews) Spent 2-3 hours Ranking #2 in Ionian Islands Beaches

Beautiful place to swim

This series of unique rock formations on Corfu’s northwestern coast create narrow channels and small bays that are ideal for swimming. Climb the cliffs for stunning views of the beautiful landscape and the Ionian Sea. There aren’t many spots to sunbathe, but the shallow blue waters make for good swimming and snorkeling—explore hidden coves and small caves you can swim under. Canal D’Amourets gets very busy during the day—visit towards the evening for a peaceful sunset, or stay at the resort and hit the beach early. Watch out for cliff jumpers when you’re in the water. – Tripadvisor

Lovely place to relax and enjoy
After reading the previous reviews I felt I had to write my own as it was so unjust. The Canal D Amour is an area of natural beauty. There are various bays to look at with interesting rock formations in the sea. If you don’t take the time to explore then yes, you may only see the small strip of beach on which to sunbathe. Look to the local beach bar what a lovely place to eat reasonably priced food of very high quality then check out the area on the cliffs to sunbathe on and the other beaches and shallow caves, all with stunning views. Yes, there aren’t concrete pavements everywhere just normal pavement. I honestly feel some people should stay in their built up cities and leave beautiful areas like the Canal D Amour for those of us who appreciate natural beauty. Oh and the nearby Sidari strip is only a 10 minute walk away for a lively night if that’s what you want to do all good in small measure.

Nice at sunset, don’t bother during the day
Nice to visit at sunset, we were staying nearby and would walk along the tops some evenings as the sunset is lovely. Not sure how it can even be classed as a beach as the beach is barely even big enough for 2 or 3 towels is just really a way to get into the water. Hot and hard work in the day, lots and lots of groups on tours who leave all their rubbish around the too small bins. Often very windy and big waves when we were there which was nice to look at but wouldn’t risk swimming. Really scruffy around it derelict land, abandoned sun beds, rubbish etc seems such a shame. Nice place to walk to in the evening but I would have been disappointed to tAke a trip to specifically visit.
