The charming fishing village of Petriti Corfu is located on the eastern coast of the island, in close proximity to the tourist friendly resorts of Lefkimmi and Boukari. With a number of berths for visiting sailing yachts, Petriti village with its calm atmosphere is ideally suited for family holidays. Even though it is considered one of most beautiful villages in Corfu, it has escaped mass tourism and has retained its traditional feel which is further accentuated by the warm and friendly attitude of the locals.
Since Petriti village is set in the midst of a stunning green forest, there are many interesting walks you can take during your visit. For those who are looking for sea and sun, Petriti beach is small and narrow, the water is relatively shallow and there are no sea urchins.
Moreover, Petriti Corfu has a pretty harbour where you can still see the local fisherman getting ready for a day of work early in the morning. There are some excellent fish tavernas in the area, so do not miss out on the opportunity to enjoy some freshly caught fish. There are also some beautiful small bars in Petriti. Just enjoy the great view over the harbour while having a nice cold cocktail.
