I had great experiences with the locals looking out for me as a solo traveller. I had a few occasions where I needed help with my vehicle and medical issues, and the locals were friendly and couldn't have been more accommodating. If you are looking for an authentic experience, skip the main strip in Sidari as it is a British tourist attraction. However, it was very busy in the evening and felt safe for going out at night alone. For a quieter experience and nicer restaurants, go to the area near Canal D'Amour. I had the best views and breakfast on my wat up to Porto Timoni Beach at Anafoufou...

I felt very safe in Corfú. We were a group of 4 girls and we stayed in an airbnb. I would recommend to book a boat trip to Naxos-paxos. Porto Timoni is also a must, there are great viewpoints before arriving to the beach. It is a hike of around 20 minutes, but it is worth it. The people were very welcoming.

The sail trip to naxos-paxos is a must. You get to visit 2 different places plus a swimming spot with crystal blue water. Porto Timoni beach is another must, but you need to get to the beach hiking, so could see the great views from the beach from above. The only bad thing about the trip was the humid heat, we were sweating so much, even during the night, so you have to hydrate yourself regularly. Overall we felt very safe, we were a group of women.
