Recommend an absolutely unpopular but super stunning niche resort island
#5月好去地方2025
When it comes to Greece, people always think of Santorini and Zakynthos. But Corfu, hidden at the northern end of the Aegean Sea, is the forgotten holiday paradise. It became popular because of "The Durrells". There is no crowd here, only the old town, the beach and the colorful villas facing the sea.
