Morning light breaks over Corfu as the driver eases away from Corfu Town and the island unfolds—olive groves sliding past, cliffs sharpening toward sea. From Kanoni the tiny islet of Pontikonisi and the white roof of Vlaherna Monastery sit like a lighthouse in miniature, daring the viewer to lean closer. The road then climbs and drops, scenting the air with pine and salt until Paleokastritsa’s bays open: water so clear it seems to pull the shoreline forward.
