To anyone who does not like Corfu town i have to ask why?
Its a fantastic place, with loads of cafes on the liston to chill out in and people watch. so many places to visit, such as the Old and the new fortress. The restaurants are excellent and full of local charm.
So many shops to wander in and out of and buy souvenirs. If you miss the shops back home you can find a few high street names such as Marks and Spencer. Although why people only want to find british names and buy stuff there is beyond me.
I noticed someone complained about cobble streets!! Come on..... This again adds onto the charm. Also you mentioned lots of the shops were closed., Yes, some days there are restricted opening hours, but if you check with you rep in resort they can tell you the best times to go. I would suggest on Friday evening as the atmosphere is amazing, with all the locals out and about.
Its busy, as its the capital of Corfu. So dont complain that its too busy!!!
