Barbati is situated at the northeastern end of
Corfu, about 20km from Corfu town and the airport. Perched at the foot of Mount Pandokrator, amidst green cypress trees, it has breathtaking views along the coast to Corfu town on the right and across to Albania on the left. The sheer, rocky backdrop secludes Barbati from the rest of the island, giving it an isolated, hidden feel. The resort itself is small and laid-back, with just a few shops, tavernas and bars. It has avoided excessive tourist development with the accommodation comprising of low-rise apartments, villas and tavernas.
The jewel in Barbati's crown is its long, shingle beach and calm azure sea. Watersports are on offer and provide some of Barbati's limited entertainment. There are remnants of an ancient church right on the beach - it is closed but definitely worth a look. Barbati resort is popular with families and couples and will suit you if you want to be drenched not only in sunshine, but also in beauty and friendliness.
