If you are looking for a full fortnight of sun and sand and you love to party by night and chill by day then the resort of Kavos is your kind of place. The place is jammed with bars and clubs … and the bars and clubs are packed with people whose idea of a good time is likely to match your own. In Kavos, holidays neatly divide into two time zones – under-the-sun and after-dark. For the former there's a beautiful sandy beach stretching five miles from start to finish – so loads of snoozing space there. If you possess the energy to get active, there are watersports from pedaloes to parasailing. And while the beach is fairly cramped, its gentle slope into the sea gives you broad shallows – perfect for relaxing floats on a lilo. The resort has loads of little shops, more than you'll ever need, offering anything from T-shirts to coffee cups. And, along with a couple of traditional tavernas, there are loads of cafes perfect for grabbing some fast food or to experience an English breakfast – whatever time you wake. So sustenance can be pretty cheap. Holidays to Kavos really come alive after dark though – so pace yourself for the clubs, pubs and music bars partying till dawn. For twosomes on summer holidays to Kavos, the San Marina Hotel ticks those boxes. If you're looking for a late deal holiday to Kavos, there are usually an array of late deals for bargains.
Nightlife
The nights at Kavos are far from quiet and not even remotely traditional Greek. The array of restaurants, bars and discos along either side of the main street of Kavos is, in one word, impressive. There are plenty of Taverns offering British menus and there are even a couple of more traditional places if that is what you prefer.
And when it comes to bars and discos the scope is simply amazing. You can listen to almost any kind of music from garage and beat to the more classic music of the 70s and 80s and you can be sure that no matter which joint you choose, the party will go on late into the night. Loud music, bright lights, and faces brimming with excitement wherever you look; all mingle to the single sensation - that this is the reveller's dreamland.
The Beach
With its five-mile long stretch of golden sand facing the Greek mainland, and its shallow safe water is perhaps the only feature that has remained largely unchanged over time. Of course, it now offers all the usual beach facilities as well as a wide range of water sports to choose from if you are feeling active. However, just taking a nap on the sea beds is another very popular activity, especially when it comes to those who had a rowdy night before.
In any case, the beach is long enough to cater for anyone's needs - from the challenge of sea sports for the more daring to quiet spots for those looking for some peace and quiet, or hoping to catch up with last night's sleep.
The holiday resort of Kavos is can be found on the striking current day island of Corfu (also called Kerkyra). Corfu is a greek holiday island offering spectacular cliff formations on the west coast, a wide range of resorts, excellent beaches with a scattering of umbrellas and sun-loungers, picturesque villages , fertile valleys, verdant forests and mountains to the north with sweeping views of the island, mainland Greece, Albania and even Italy (from Mount Prantokrator) on a clear day. There are plenty of options when it comes to touring around Corfu island. Why not book one of the many excursions directly from Terrys Studios And Apartments. If you've been looking for a really typical and popular Greek island holiday then you're certain to be seduced by the charming island of Corfu, so why not book a holiday in Kavos.
Surrounding Area
But there is yet more to Kavos than just its beach and its nightlife attraction. The surrounding area offers interesting walks and strolls of varying length and difficulty through olive groves, fields or, for the more daring, through wooded land to the headland of Asprokavos or to Arkoudillas. These latter will reward you with breath-taking views from the hills and cliffs of the southern edge of Corfu and, on a clear day, of the islands of Paxos and Antipaxos. You could also visit the ruins of an old monastery near Arkoudilas.
Transportation
Kavos is about 30 miles to the south of Corfu town and it is roughly an hour's drive from there. There are regular bus connections, but there are also boat trips not only to Corfu town, but also to Parga, on the Greek mainland, as well as to Paxos and Antipaxos, two small islands off the southern coast of the island of Corfu. Another way of going about would be to hire a moped, which would give you the additional advantage of exploring the area at your own pace.
