At the end of the road, you can find a small organized beach with shallow water, ideal for families with small children. You can also enjoy your coffee at the bar and have wonderful traditional meals at the taverns.
Kontokali Corfu owes its name to Kontokalis, a Corfu nobleman who participated in the Naval Battle of Nafpaktos in 1571. Kontokalis participated in the naval battle with his own ship and exhibited valour that contributed to the victory of the combined Western forces. The Venetian government gave him a large plot of land and named the settlement in his honour.
