About this experience
Discover Corfu & the Ionian Sea from a new perspective! Excursion’s departing point is on Mayor’s steps in Garitsa bay of Corfu Town, where our boat pick up the guests. Departing from the port we have a unique view of Vido Island, the Old Town, the Royal Palace and the Old Venetian Fortress. We have three (3) options for you: - BBQ Boat Trip to the North East of Corfu (7 hours with pick up from Corfu Town, Dassia Beach or Ipsos Beach) - BBQ Boat Trip to the Mainland of Greece (7 hours with pick up from Corfu Town) - Sunset BBQ Boat Trip to Mouse Island (2.5 hours with pick up from Corfu Town) Our boat will anchor in one of the best beaches, where you will be able to sunbathe or to swim in its crystal-clear waters. There, we will have lunch with a magical view on the sea: our crew will prepare you a tasty barbecue with local food. It's certainly one of the best ways to spend a day enjoying a beach BBQ, the sea & the sun.

Smoking will be allowed, even though the sign says no smoking .
What a great tour the boat was clean the sons were friendly and nice. We enjoyed everything and every place we went. The food was excellent. If the captain didn’t allow people to sit on the front of the boat and smoke all the way back it would have been perfect. At least he could have asked if anyone had COPD or other health issues before letting them smoke where the No smoking sign was. At least add it to your advertisement that people will be allowed to smoke and so will your captain!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the review!

A must do!
Wonderful boat trip and the crew had a lot of insights on where we were going and history about the island. Would love to go again!
Response from the operator: Dear Erin, Thank you so much for the 5 star review! We would love to see you again in the future! Best wishes, Chris

Ok
Support in advance of the trip was very good and pickup was prompt. People on the boat were in general very nice. The bbq was very poor, v small choice of food and they tried to force pork on everyone instead of chicken. Cheap drinks and wine provided. The beaches we went to were nice but v dirty from previous other boats. This is an expensive trip for the experience
Response from the operator: Dear Mrs. Jennifer, Thank you for your review. We are surprised of your opinion about the "poor" BBQ...It's the first time that someone is telling us something like that, but I suppose every person's taste and needs are different. This BBQ is an "traditional" BBQ on the beach, not something fancy but very tasty and... GREEK! Soft drinks & family local wine are provided which are not "cheap" at least for us.. We certainly feel that this is NOT an expensive trip, especially when it is a FULL day trip with Food & Drinks included. We will check the fact that you mentioned about forcing everyone to pork instead of chicken, if anything happened there we trully apologize. Best wishes, Chris

Fun, sun and BBQ!
Fun trip on a great boat. So much better than the larger party boats. I appreciate that it’s a family running the boat. They made a delicious BBQ lunch while we lounged on the beach and floated in the water. Highly recommend!
Response from the operator: Dear Lisa, Thank you for the wonderful review! We hope to see you again in one of our tours or activities. Best wishes, Chris

Boat BBQ
We had an amazing experience with good friends. The captain and crew of the Asteras were kind, entertaining and attentive. The bbq on the beach was delicious!!! We cruised along the coast from Dassia to Kasiopi. We stopped at three beaches to swim and have lunch and at Kasiopi to shop before heading back. The day could not have been better. Highly recommend. You will not be disappointed!!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We hope to see you again! Best wishes, Chris

Why this scores 65
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
BBQ Boat Trips by Locals - Experience "The Unique Ionian Sea": questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Corfu.
How much does BBQ Boat Trips by Locals - Experience "The Unique Ionian Sea" cost?
+
Prices start at $77 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Corfu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does BBQ Boat Trips by Locals - Experience "The Unique Ionian Sea" take?
+
Plan for about 7.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Corfu is not rushed.
Is BBQ Boat Trips by Locals - Experience "The Unique Ionian Sea" worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Corfu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule BBQ Boat Trips by Locals - Experience "The Unique Ionian Sea"?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is BBQ Boat Trips by Locals - Experience "The Unique Ionian Sea" suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book BBQ Boat Trips by Locals - Experience "The Unique Ionian Sea"?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Corfu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Corfu and add a light layer if any part of the 7.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does BBQ Boat Trips by Locals - Experience "The Unique Ionian Sea" start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Corfu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Corfu?
+
On Outty we rank every Corfu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small-Group Food and Cultural Tour in Corfu, The Governor's Olive Mill Tour with Olive Oil Tasting, Electric Fat Bike Self Guided Tour Discover North Corfu. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Corfu?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Corfu?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
