Dassia

Dassia (sometimes spelt Dasia) is a large resort, spread both sides of a busy main road. From this main road though, there are several smaller roads leading down to the Dassia beach.

Who is the Resort for

Close to the beach there are large hotels. Some are quite spectacular. Apartments tend to be the other side of the main road - about 500m from the beach. If you are looking for a 'hotel' holiday, then Dassia should be on your list.

Dassia Beach at the Chandris Hotel.

The Beach

There is the main Dassia beach which seems to stretch out for miles. Also two small cove type beaches at the edge of the resort.

Type

Shingle until about 1 meter into the water changing to sand.

Sunbeds

Yes.
To the edge of the beach at Dassia, you will find shaded areas that are perfect for spending all day.

Facilities

Child Suitability

As the beach is far from the main busy road it is suitable for children - in as much as you do not need to worry about cars.

Accessibility

Parking is nearby, but some walking will be required. There is a network of excellent footpaths to the beach and along the top.

Cleanliness and Urchins

The beach is clean, but as with many of the beaches on the North East coast, it does suffer from some seaweed on the beach - not unpleasant though in any way.

Places of Interest

At the South end of the resort you will find a smaller beach - with a ruined Venetian boatyard.

Places Nearby

The lively resort of Ipsos is just a ten min walk. (Dassia is not without some excellent bars and smaller clubs though). The exclusive resort of Kommeno is just round the headland towards Gouvia and the famous 'Church Island' is worth a visit.

How to get there by Car

From the main Paleokastritsa road look for the turning to 'Kassiopi'. The Kassiopi road takes you to all of the resorts and bays along the NE coast of Corfu. Follow this road and just before Ipsos - the main road goes straight through the resort - you cannot miss it.

Tavernas on Dassia

Dassia has many good tavernas and restaurant which serve local and international cuisine. There is also a Chinese and a Indian restaurant in Dassia. Whatever you might prefer you will find it in Dassia.

Bars and Nightclubs

Lots. Several 'beach bars', and more up on the main road. For an English experience, do not miss out on a trip to 'Shakes Bar'!!!
