About Renting a Car at Corfu Kerkyra
Rent a car in Kerkyra - Corfu's capital - and explore the entire island from its historic center. Kerkyra Town is Corfu's hub with a UNESCO-protected old town, Venetian architecture, and a lively harbor. With a rental car, Paleokastritsa is 26 km away (approximately 35 min) and the northern beach Sidari is 39 km away (approximately 55 min).
Kerkyra offers attractions such as the Old Fortress (Paleo Frourio) at the eastern end of the harbor and Spianada Square, one of Europe's largest squares. The Liston promenade with its French arcade buildings is a must-see, just a 5-minute walk from the harbor area. Park outside the town center - Kerkyra's old town has very limited car traffic.
Drive south toward Benitses and Moraitika for quiet beaches with fewer tourists. Pick up your rental car early in the morning to avoid queues at the rental station. Are there parking options in Kerkyra Town?
Yes, there are parking spaces along the harbor promenade and at New Fortress, but they fill up quickly during high season. How long does it take to drive around the entire Corfu? A complete tour around the island is approximately 120 km and takes about 3-4 hours depending on stops.
Can I return the car at the airport? Yes, most rental companies in Kerkyra offer drop-off at Corfu Airport, approximately 3 km to the south.
