PEROULADES (Village) CORFU
The village’s name derives from the Peroulis family. It was founded during pre-Homeric times but there is also evidence that it was inhabited as early as the late Bronze Age period. Peroulades flourished during the Middle Ages; it possessed a guard with long range guns for defense against pirate raids. Only a raid in 1403 caused great destruction, despite the fearless opposition of the villagers. Several important figures, such as Dontis, Koletis and the great poet and writer Kalvos, came to Peroulades. Peroulades boasts one of the best beaches in Corfu, golden sand backed by dramatic cliffs, with a view of the three little Diapontian islands away over the wide sea to the north. The sunset is famous, and Peroulades is lovely in the moonlight. The locals are renowned for their kindness, hospitality and high spirits.
