How safe is Corfu

Recent press reports have focused on some problems in the Greek islands and you are wise to enquire about your safety.

When people are on holiday, drinking alcohol and partying most of the night, then problems can arise. Fortunately the number of visitors who are demanding this style of holiday head elsewhere and leave Corfu to the more discerning. Corfu is safe, the locals honest, and you need not worry about walking on your own at night. If there is any danger at all, it would be from other tourists! Tourist resorts often attract individuals who are looking for an opportunity to steal easily. But, the locals are a tight community and will immediately investigate a suspicious person. Crime and theft is very rare. Most locals do not lock their car or homes.
