Agios Gordios beach, on the west coast of Corfu, is a long sandy beach with calm waters thanks to the natural shelter of the bay. At its southern end, the impressive Ortholithoi rocks dominate, giving the landscape a unique character. The organized beach offers amenities for comfortable swimming and relaxation.
The beach faces west. With easterly winds the air flows offshore and the water near the shore stays flat; with westerly winds the sea builds up waves onto the beach. The coast is exposed to the open sea, so conditions change quickly with the wind.
The shore faces west (250°), so all year round the sun sets within its field of view, over the water.
An estimate based on the orientation of the shore — a headland or island opposite may hide the horizon.
In calm seas yes, but the water gets deep fairly quickly — normal supervision applies.
On days with easterly (offshore) winds or no wind at all. Check the live score on Beach Radar before you go — it updates all day.
Yes — sunbeds, umbrellas and food options operate during the summer season.
