Getting in
- Access
- Small sandy coves sit between cream sandstone formations, with caves along the channel. Winter storms in February 2026 eroded the shoreline at the canal and took away parts of seafront premises (ERT, 19 Feb 2026); local press reported the seafront walkway closed after a collapse (Corfu TV News, 15 Feb 2026) and the damage still unrepaired in May 2026.
- Public transport
- KTEL Kerkyra (green buses) route A2 runs from Corfu Town to Sidari, about 1 hour 15 minutes; the canal is at the west end of the village.
