Beaches: The sandy beach of Halikuna is considered one of the most unusual beaches on the island of Corfu. The length of the coastline is 2.5 km.

You can also visit other sandy beaches located near the villa "Mela". These are Prasudi, Skidi, Paramonas, Kanuli, Skala. It is worth noting that Prasoudi beach is marked with a blue flag. It is equipped with all the necessary beach equipment for a comfortable stay. Meals: A short walk from the villa, you can enjoy Corfu cuisine, fresh fish in island restaurants and taverns.

The natural beauty of the mountain landscape surprises even the most demanding visitor. Oaks, pines and cedars make up the unique scenery. - Paleolithic cave Gravas: On the way to the beach of Halikuna and after the Castle of Gardikiu, about halfway to the top of Mount Pantokrator, the sight of the tourist meets the cave of Gravas.
