When to go to Corfu?
Ionian light, Venetian arcades and cricket on the esplanade: Corfu's old town wears its layers lightly. The Achilleion, Empress Sisi's villa above the sea, and the Royal Palace in town both come with terraces built for looking at water. On the west coast, Paleokastritsa folds into a series of coves where the sea turns an improbable green.
