Explore Agios Spyridon N/A & Lake Antinioti
The main beach there is utterly child-friendly. The waters are shallow, and the beach is sandy. For those who love hiking, there is an amazing path that starts from the Antinioti lagoon and leads to the nearby area of Almyros, passing through a forest of unique beauty. On the beach there is the church of Agios Spyridon, from where the beach got its name, and some taverns.
Near the beach is the monastery of Agia Ekaterini, founded in 1713, inside which you find remarkable frescoes from the 18th and 19th centuries. Embraced by wild vegetation and at the mercy of time, it blends with the natural beauty of the landscape. It looks like it came straight out of a fairytale. The peninsula-headland located behind the characteristic old house is called Lagopidima, and behind it a characteristic point-pier is hidden, that of Petsapou, overlooking the characteristic rocks of Spyridonisia. Pretsapou is what the locals call the wider area nearby where villas for rent are found.
The Antinioti lagoon is one of the most impressive landscapes of Corfu, with an extremely sensitive and diverse ecosystem. It is located on the north side of the island, in the municipality of Thinalia, after the beaches of Almyros and Agios Spyridon.
