Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

There's someone squatting on the headland where the view point is and they have erected a metal fence preventing anyone from getting to it. You can walk down to where the boat hire is but there's very little space to sit. It's a steep path down and back up again for a 5 minute stop unless you want to hire a boat for 20 euros for 40 mins. I would recommend that, until someone moves the squatters on, you stop at the top, take some photos and move on.

The views from here are just stunning! We drove in pretty far, about as far as we could to get the main view of Cape Drastis (past where most people parked and walked in quite a ways). We then walked down on a trail, but only for a little while. It looked beautiful from all angles.

Worth a trip up here if you are touring the north of the island. Coastline completely different from other parts of the coast of Corfu and these cliffs are largely inaccessible, except by boat to the small coves and hidden beached. Sadly, we didn't have time for that but at least we could appreciate the majesty of these formations. Quite near Logas beach (also known as 'sunset' beach).

The view from the top is very nice, however, the beach is not accessible, as is closed by locals with gates and dogs. So if you want to reach the beach, you have to use boat as a service, provided by locals.
We were with little kids, so we decided just to see the view from the top of Cape Drastis and do not use the boat ant went instead to Sunset beach, which is near by. The view was stunning here. There is a very nice bar with amazing view here.

My wife and myself are currently holidaying in Corfu and earlier today we went on a day trip to the nearby (30 minutes by boat) Island of Ericusa.
On the return journey we briefly visited both Cape Drastis and Canal D’Amour. Whilst impressed with the latter (see subsequent Review), unfortunately, I was underwhelmed by the former which made me question why this is one of the leading local attractions?
Either way, I shall certainly be in mo great hurry to pay a return visit!

The view from the hill is nice and if you walk down the dirt road there is a small beach that you can swim till Loggas beach.The water is very clean and its also really quiet around.
I did see a boat but nobody can stop me from swimming in a free beach so i had a great time:)

An absolutely beautiful location to stop by and see. You can't get to it, so you are looking from the hillside across. the day we went was very cloudy but it is still stunning. the best option is to go to the Cape Drastis Viewpoint on GoogleMaps. We tried going further down the road but the views are not better and we nearly damaged the rental car on the very poor and washed out road with deep ruts.

It is a wonderful place to see from the top, during a sunset and from the boat as well! We did not try to walk to the very end of the cliff. We went to the very end of the road even with our VW UP and it did not have a problem. There are two beautiful view stops on the way and on the end (under the cliff from the right side) is a tiny beach on the rocks with a very nice view, place to have a swim and a boat rental to go around the cliff. Wouldn't say it is worth walking all the way down but the view from the top is worth it. Also you can rent a boat at Sidari and go around the cliff by your self. Would be sooo romantic at sunset! It looks just like the photos! (Although not much more to see other than the one view)

Well, the view from the viewpoint is really amazing, from the seaside also a nice view. However proper capo drakis is inaccessible. The terrain is private and the path is closed. In front of gate is sitting not nice Greek man (first one in my life who was really rude) who told me
- no way. Private. Go away. Everything here private.
So we'll...
Shame that Greek authorities still advertise capo Drakis as a beautiful place and must-see even they perfectly know that there is no access.

Cap drastis is very nice and can be reached after only a short walk down to the beach. The place there is very limited. We went on a boat ride which can be booked there and this was really great, incl. swimming right between the rocks of the cap. Much better than Canal d'amour and not so crowded.

Ciao , scusa per la risposta tardiva. A Cape Drastis non esiste nulla e il panorama fondamentalmente è dall'alto, ma probabilmente da alcune località limitrofe si può trovare una imbarcazione privata che porti ad un tour della zona

Hi, I noticed you said you took quads down to get to the beach. My partner and I would really love to visit Cape Drastis but will not be hiring a car. Were the quads close by and a good price to rent?
