Greece is a short-haul destination and among Europe's favourite spots for a well rounded, sun soaked beach holiday. There is plenty on offer for family fun as well, so why not start with the picturesque island of Corfu in the Ionian Sea? The island is deeply intertwined with Greek mythology and history and the Archaeological Museum and various ruin sites offer an exciting exploring ground for adults and children alike.
Of course, there are also beaches galore in Corfu, with Avlaki beach in the north being particularly safe for kids due to its usually calm and crystal-clear waters. Kids from 11 years can even take sailing or windsurfing lessons here. Make sure to visit the exciting Hydropolis Waterpark in the island's north for thrilling slide rides and lots of splashing fun. The MarBella Corfu Hotel is one of our top picks for families on the island, providing all types of facilities, including two children-only swimming pools, kid-friendly meal options and the Meli Club for babies from 4 months up to 12 years of age.
