When is the best time to fly to Kavos?
The bustling town of Kavos, situated on the south of Corfu Island, has been a popular destination with British tourists since the 1990s.

If you are looking for a party destination with guaranteed sun, Kavos is the place to go.

Kavos overview
The focus of the town is the main strip, where most of the bars and clubs stand. The restaurants serve mostly English food, though if you search long enough it is still possible to find the odd Greek taverna. Shopping too is focused on tourists, with most shops solely stocking souvenirs. During the day, almost everyone (who isn’t sleeping off the excesses of the night before) heads for the beach. Its length is its main attribute, at almost five miles long, but it is nonetheless crowded. This isn’t the prettiest spot on Corfu, but it is certainly one of the liveliest.
