Glifada. Mirtiotissa. |
Glifada's Beach, perhaps, is one from two best sandy beaches of Corfu Island (the second is Agios Gordis). A photo of Glifada from a mountain is the second card of Corfu (the first is a panoramic view on Paleokastritsa from Bella Vista). Two kilometers of amazing sandy beaches. In the left part of a bay is the small hotel working by the system "all is included". However the beach before hotel and part if its infrastructures are readily available. In particular near the hotel there is a charge-free parking place. If not to know about it, it is possible to drive 150 meters and to take paid parking. However, many keep cars at the road before a branch to the hotel.
On the other hand of bay it is absolutely small hotel and a rather large "zone" consisting from two-floors villas, handed in a hire. In the peak of a season such villa can be rented by for 100 - 110 dollars per day. It seems, that is is too expensive, but there its are quite comfortable for 6 - 8 persons. "A Private sector " in Glifada is absolutely small.

The road in the Mirtiotissa bay isn't asfalted. Nevertheless someone passes there by car, in particular if a car is rented. The majority prefers to keep the car or bikeê in a forest in a shadow of olives and to be passed about kilometer by foot on a road covered in some places with a five-centimetric stratum of a dust. It is possible to take pleasure in it too. Only don't forget to takea bottle of sea water on your back way to the car or bike to wash legs for. However on this "wild" beach it is possible to hire basis sunbed and umbrella and to buy some ice-cream or a bottle cooled water.
