Roda

Primarily a resort town, it has retained much of its old charm as an old fishing village - the boats still go out every day to catch fish from the clear, warm waters around the island. Across the horizon, you can also see the impressive landscape of Albania and the lights of Himarë.

The town sits on Corfu's north coast, between Sidari and Acharavi, and is primarily known for its sandy beaches. Although considered a small beach resort, it is nowhere near as large as Kassiopi or other surrounding towns, and so doesn't regularly get crowded.

Roda is primarily the host of package holidays, with the predominant visiting group being the British . However, there is also a fair representation from other European nationalities too.

Most visitors to Roda will come into the town by coach, as organised by their tour operator. The transfer usually takes around 1 hour, depending on the number of other hotels visited along the way.

Be aware of not only the name of your hotel (as some of them are similar in name) but also what it looks like. Several of the drivers for the main contracting coach companies have a habit of either not calling out the name of the hotel upon arrival, or ignoring the planned route/order of the hotels that you may have been provided by your Tour Operator!
