Arriving into either the Corfu International Airport or at Corfu Port leads you right to the idyllic Greek island location of Skala. With its pastel-colored houses, tree-lined streets, and beachfront restaurants, this seaside village encapsulates the beauty and charm of the Mediterranean. Hiring a scooter, motorcycle or quad bike is the perfect way to explore the winding coastal roads, secluded coves, and hillside villages nearby.
Cruise along the main road from Corfu Town to pay a visit to Paleokastritsa with its iconic monastery perched atop towering cliffs overlooking emerald waters. Stop to wander the olive groves and breathtaking views at Angelokastro fortress. For those seeking adventure, rev up and head inland to discover the mountain villages like Spartilas with its panoramic vistas, or explore Lake Korission by quad bike.
Don't miss a photo op at Canal d'Amour, known for its naturally formed tunnel through the rocks that legend promises will bind sweethearts together. Back in Skala, stroll the main square to do some shopping and people watching. Try some classic Greek dishes like moussaka or souvlaki at the tavernas lining the beach.
Walk out on the jetty at sunset for glorious views. Dance the night away at one of Skala's lively beach bars. Hiring your own wheels lets you cruise down the coastal road to Kassiopi village, or find your own hidden coves and beaches to truly immerse yourself in island life.
With so much natural beauty and quintessential Greek charm, Skala is the perfect base to explore Corfu by scooter, quad bike or motorcycle.
