Anyone Been To Benitzes - Corfu

Going to Benitses for a week soon, Anyone been before?

Doesn't look a big place, Looking at Google Maps it looks to have 2 bays.

It is only 7 miles from Corfu Town if we get bored!!

Thx For Any Replies.;)

    I have never been but I think it always used to be associated with the 18-30 crowd.
  • Think you might be thinking of Kavos down the road?.

    I went in 1985! And it was full of drunken rowdy youngsters.. off which i was one!
    Man made beach with a wall holding it all in so you go went from the beach into 2 foot of water. Not a lot there then tho things will have changed.

    No intention of ever going back. Even tho it was ages ago it didnt impress at all.

    Back in the 80s it was THE place in Corfu, followed by Ipsos. Kavos was just a remote sleepy village then. Now its reversed-Benitses is a sleepy village and Kavos is the wild child.
    Messongi isnt too far,theres a semi decent beach there, Perama is just up the road, but thats hilly and Corfu town isnt far either.
    Id hire a car theres lots of interesting bits all over Corfu.
    I havent been back in over 25 yrs (so they are probably just about recovered :-) )
