The Greek island you need to visit out of the peak summer season

Corfu’s secret beaches, mountain villages and warm hospitality make it the perfect place for a getaway… if you visit at the right time. In this episode of Which? Shorts, deputy editor of Which? Travel Naomi Leach shares her experience of exploring Corfu as she went off the beaten track, away from the usual tourist hotspots. Naomi’s visit included authentic vineyards, choppy turquoise seas, and cobblestone staircases - a world away from the typical imagery conjured up when Greek islands spring to mind. This episode is read by Naomi Leach and is based on an article she wrote, originally published in the September/October 2026 issue of Which? Travel.
