Kavos is a former fishing village on the island of Corfu off the mainland of Greece. Reportedly, about 17 million tourists go to Greece every year and Kavos is on their list of stops. In the past, 90% of these tourists have typically been European but that trend has begun to change in recent years, and Kavos, as well as the rest of Greece, has become a world-wide tourist destination.
Kavos has a tradition of being a summer haven for young Europeans looking to party; therefore, January is not a busy month there.
If you are travelling with a family or if you are not into the party scene, a January vacation in Kavos could be just what you are looking for.
The January average temperature of 49.5°F (9.7°C) doesn't make it too uncomfortable to go on shopping and sightseeing tours.
