Blue Eye cave

4.5(368 reviews)

About

On Corfu, Blue Eye cave is a sea cave near Paleokastritsa, on the island's western coast. The cave is known for the intense blue light that filters through the water inside, a phenomenon that draws visitors who want to see the colour for themselves.

First-time visitors should expect to arrive by boat rather than on foot, as the cave opens directly onto the sea. The cave sits along the Παλαιοκαστρίτσας coast at Paleokastritsa 490 83, the area from which boats depart. Visitors give it a 4.5 out of 5 average across 368 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded natural sights on Corfu.

Boat trips to the cave are run by mpoukasboats.gr, the website associated with the site. Paleokastritsa, where the cave is found, lies within reach of several other spots on the island, including Corfu Town, Kerkira, Sidari, Kavos, Ipsos, Dassia and Gouvia.

Corfu is reached by air from Athens or through a larger hub island, since not every Greek island has its own airport. Bakeries on the islands sell spanakopita and tyropita, and vineyards on Santorini, Crete and Paros produce local wines. The islands are mostly rocky and hilly, with olives, grapes and capers growing on terraced slopes. Greek, Roman, Byzantine and Venetian remains appear across the islands, from Delos to the old town of Rhodes.
