Corfu
Scuba diving centres and waterparks add to the holiday fun on this enchanting island which hangs from the heel of Italy next to the west coast of Greece.
Discover Paleokastritsa, one of the most popular bays, and explore the island’s golden sands and quiet coves for secluded bathing.
Most hotels have sea views and many offer watersports, including luxury properties next to beautiful protected landscapes, so dive in to the wonderfully clear seas.
Dhassia features watersports centres while Ayiops Steanos is one of the loveliest bays so take your pick from gentle swims to all-action sailing during your hop to Corfu.
Sivota
Sivota is where cool, green forests meet peaceful, sandy coves. Diving clubs, kayaking, windsurfing and paragliding are all up for grabs so plan your days around the waterfront or take a boat trip to the romantic isle of Paxos.
Nearby Parga is in a sweeping bay between orange and olive groves, with a delightful harbour looking out to a sapphire sea for lazier days or visit the 1,000ft Vikos Gorge at mountainous Epirus for another change of scenery.
Lefkas
Among Lefkas’s mix of sandy and pebbled beaches is secluded Porto Katsiki – the ‘Port of Goats’ – once only reached by goats, now with steep steps down the cliffside, but also accessible by boat.
The Island that isn't really an island! Lefkas is actually linked to the mainland by a causeway across a canal created in the 8th century BC and dotted with pretty villages, plenty of traditional tavernas as well as spectacular waterfalls and a windsurfing centre at Vasiliki.
The four-star plus Porto Galini Seaside Resort and Spa, on Lefkas, is a 100-acre resort that’s perfect for watersports with opportunities for canoeing, dinghy sailing, windsurfing and water skiing.
