Paradise Beach (Chomi) Corfu: The Boat-Only White Wall Sanctuary

Known to local fishermen as Chomi and celebrated internationally as Paradise Beach, this breathtaking natural sanctuary on Corfu's West Coast features an awe-inspiring 120-meter vertical limestone precipice that descends directly into a strip of pristine white sand. With no roads, paths, or human development of any kind, it is accessible strictly by boat.

The Grandeur of the 120-Meter Limestone Wall

Seeing Paradise Beach from the water provides an unforgettable sense of scale. The chalk-white cliff face towers over the deck, reflecting the blinding Mediterranean sun down into water so intensely turquoise that the shadows of anchored boats are cast crisp and dark onto the sandy seabed five meters below.

Because there is zero road access, Paradise Beach remains completely raw. No permanent umbrellas, no beach bars, and no vehicle noise disrupt the natural rhythm of the surf against the shoreline pebbles.

Skipper's Anchoring & Safety Protocols

When approaching Paradise Beach aboard our licence-free 30 HP boats or our flagship Windy 40 Bora, adhere to strict maritime safety practices:

  • Keep Safe Distance from the Cliff: While the sand shelf extends close to shore, always anchor at least thirty meters offshore. Thermal shifts can cause minor pebble and dust movement down the sheer rock face during warm summer afternoons.
  • Sandy Seabed Holding: Look for the pale turquoise patches indicating pure sand. The anchor sets quickly and holds securely in depths between four and seven meters.
  • Swim-In Access: The transition from the boat's teak swim ladder to the beach is an effortless thirty-meter swim through calm, buoyant water.
