One of the most famous and longest sandy beaches on the island of Corfu is the one at Agios Georgios Pagon on the northwest coast.

Nearby (about 3 km) is one of the most beautiful beaches in Corfu, Porto Timoni.

Swimming and beach facilities

The beach stretches along the entire wide bay, creating plenty of space and ideal conditions for families with children thanks to the gradual entry into the water, fine golden sand and plenty of facilities in the form of several tavernas and snack bars.

Agios Georgios is situated in a rural setting and is one of the very quiet resorts.

Prices for sunbeds and parasols here are around 15 eur per day per set. You have the possibility to rent pedal boats as well as water activities such as water skiing, banana boat or parasailing.

Agios Georgios (Pagon) beach is often confused with the small resort of the same name in southern Corfu, near which lies the popular Issos beach. This is also why the resort in the north is often referred to as Agios Georgios North, while the resort in the south of the island is referred to as Agios Georgios South.
