Gouvia is a resort village on Corfu, Greece, located approximately 8 km north of Corfu Town. Situated beside a natural harbor, it hosts the island's largest marina and was historically favored by the Venetians, leaving behind the preserved Venetian Arsenal shipyard. The area offers a mix of large resort complexes to the north and a charming old street parallel to the marina lined with bars, restaurants, and smaller hotels. A small pebble beach sits in the center of the bay, while the nearby Hypapante church adds cultural interest. It serves as a convenient base for exploring the island with easy access to main roads.
