Guide to Aspro Kavos

'Relaxation comes easy in this quiet resort, but when you want to step things up, energetic Kavos waits next door.'

Located next to Corfu's top party destination Kavos, small Aspro Kavos doesn't even try to emulate the antics of its bigger, brasher neighbour. In fact, it's very happy in its own skin, with a laid-back attitude and tranquil pace that contrasts starkly with Kavos' round-the-clock energy. Everything here seems intentionally geared to induce a state of relaxation – even the scenery. Backed by craggy mountains and flat olive plains, the town is blessed with an inviting five-mile long sandy beach. The soft sands and warmth of the water give it bucket-loads of family appeal, but even if you're here to chill out with friends, you can't fault it as somewhere kick off your shoes and take things easy. And just to add an extra flourish to a few hours spent here, there are heart-lifting views over the island of Paxos to the south. Within the resort you'll find more than enough traditional tavernas, shops and sociable bars to keep you fed, watered and entertained. And as if that's not enough, you're sure to be led out of town by buses to Corfu Town and boat excursions to Paxos with its magical sea grottoes and intimate fishing villages. Back at home, there's always the siren call of Kavos to tempt you after dark. With its fun-loving bars, high-energy nightspots and dance-til-dawn clubs just a cab ride away, it's there, ready and waiting, just in case you find yourself craving a night on the tiles.

Aspro Kavos has the most fabulous views across the sea to the small island of Paxos. Paxos can only be reached by boat and has therefore managed to preserve its unique culture. There is a real sense of community here, and Greek hospitality will greet you on every step of your visit. Traditional industry is still thriving - you'll often see local fishermen hauling full nets onto the shore, and may well sample some of their fresh catch at one of the village restaurants. This beautiful island is definitely worth a day trip and can be most easily accessed from Aspro Kavos.
