You’ll easily find cheap hotels in the Ionian Islands from which to explore. On the main island of Corfu, you’ll find the Old Fortress, a Venetian fort housing a Byzantine art collection. The Corfu Museum of Asian Art has sections devoted to Chinese, Japanese and Indian art going back to prehistoric times. This museum is located inside the Palace of St. Michael & St. George. One of the most iconic outdoor attractions is the centuries-old pirate shipwreck in the Navagio Cove on the island of Zakynthos.
