The speedboat peels away from Sidari’s shoreline and, within minutes, the launch platform becomes a white dot behind you. The chute fills, the sea pulls the line taut, and Corfu opens below: banded cliffs, the pale cut of Canal d’Amour, and the distant silhouette of the Albanian range edging the horizon.

The speedboat peels away from Sidari’s shoreline and, within minutes, the launch platform becomes a white dot behind you. The chute fills, the sea pulls the line taut, and Corfu opens below: banded cliffs, the pale cut of Canal d’Amour, and the distant silhouette of the Albanian range edging the horizon.
This short tandem flight traces a coastline shaped by Ionian waves cutting soft limestone. Canal d’Amour is as much a geological curiosity as a cultural one—narrow channels and caves formed by persistent surf, long associated in local legend with love and good fortune for couples who swim its waters.
The activity is straightforward: a short speedboat shuttle to a sea-based launchpad, certified safety kit and briefing, then a 2 km glide with five to seven minutes of true airtime. Operators run these rides as a compact loop—out, up, a signature “touch-and-go” dip if conditions allow, and back to the pad—making it possible for travelers with minimal fitness to experience a bird’s-eye view of northern Corfu.
Practical points: flights are weather-dependent so mornings and late afternoons often offer calmer winds and softer light for photos. Wear secure footwear for the boat, reef-safe sunscreen, and a light wind layer; stow cameras on a lanyard or use an action cam mounted to the harness. Pregnant guests and people with serious spinal or cardiac conditions should not fly. Expect about 20 minutes total from shore to shore, with the lift itself brief but memorable—an accessible high point for visitors who want an aerial perspective without a long hike or climb.

Canal d’Amour’s carved limestone and small sea caves have long inspired local myths about lovers; the area shifted from fishing hamlet to tourist destination in the 20th century.
Choose operators who follow marine rules, avoid anchoring on seagrass, and encourage reef‑safe sunscreens to reduce ecosystem impact.
