Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Gialiskari beach (Corfu island) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Gialiskari beach (Corfu island) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Gialiskari beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

The captivating Gialiskari beach holds a special place in my heart as it boasts a unique blend of sandy and stony terrain. Accessible only by foot, this picturesque beach can be reached from both Agni and Kalami beaches, although the latter requires a longer trek.

Regrettably, we were unable to reach the beach due to its closure by a gate. Despite our close proximity, we were forced to abandon our plans and turn back. However, we were able to find an alternative route and eventually arrived at Kalami beach via a narrow road.

Nestled along the coastline, a footpath leads to a quaint and private beach. Our time spent there was tranquil and serene, with crystal clear waters and a peaceful atmosphere. The beach was nearly empty, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the natural beauty of our surroundings. We relished in the simplicity and purity of this hidden gem.

The beach is an absolute gem with crystal-clear water that is perfect for snorkeling. It's a nature lover's paradise, and the best part is that you can reach this secluded spot with a short hike from Agni beach in just 5 to 10 minutes. While it's advisable to wear sturdy shoes, the path is also accessible in flip-flops. The breathtaking views and serene atmosphere make it a must-visit destination for anyone looking to unwind and reconnect with nature.

The beach was a disappointment, with nothing but a few scattered pebbles and cliffs that posed a danger to anyone attempting to jump into the water. While the water was crystal clear, it was hardly worth the effort it took to get there, especially since there were no amenities like umbrellas or kiosks to provide any comfort or refreshment. The lack of crowds was hardly a consolation, as it only served to highlight the overall desolation of the area.
