✓ Manually calibrated shoreline

The orientation of the shore and the shelter of the bay were checked one by one on the map for every beach — they are not derived automatically.

Kavos is located at the southern tip of Corfu, featuring a long sandy beach with shallow waters, ideal for families. The beach is renowned for its vibrant nightlife and beach bars, attracting mainly a young crowd. The bay offers moderate natural protection, while its orientation towards the southeast ensures sun from morning until afternoon.

Wind & waves: when to go

The beach faces southeast. With northwesterly winds the air flows offshore and the water near the shore stays flat; with southeasterly winds the sea builds up waves onto the beach. The shape of the coastline offers partial shelter, cutting down part of the swell.
