Corfu, Greece

Corfu is a Ionian Island located between mainland Greece and Italy. It is a very nice island to visit and especially popular with British tourists.

For travelers with an appetite for adventure Corfu offers a good starting point for a trip to Ionia.

The backpacker set almost exclusively settles at the Pink Palace on the west side of the island. A massive hostel complex, the Pink Palace is a hostel resort unto itself for the 20-something crowd, with pools, a club, a bar, a bevy of events (booze cruise, cliff diving, car tours around the island, toga parties), air conditioned rooms, shops, and much more.
