Acharavi Bay

You'll find crystal-clear waters and a sandy beach at this scenic bay on Corfu's northern coast, where you can actually see across to Albania on clear days. The gentle slope makes it ideal for families, while the mix of sand and occasional shingle gives it a more authentic Greek island feel than some of the busier tourist beaches. Acharavi itself has grown from a small fishing village into the main hub of northern Corfu, so you'll have plenty of tavernas and local shops within walking distance.
