Advice, weather, maps and shops

San Stefanos is situated on the North-West coast of Corfu, between the villages of Arillas and Avliotes. There are many ways you can explore the picturesque surroundings, on land or by water depending on your level of curiosity. For those who fancy themselves as a captain of the high seas you can hire a boat for the day and take in the glorious coastline at your own leisure, stopping in hidden caves and deserted beaches to bathe in the summer sun. No need to worry for those who haven’t yet grown their sea legs as there is plenty to see on land down quiet tracks and through luscious olive groves. You can easily navigate your way on foot around the small villages, taking in the old churches and small cafes where you are more than welcome to rest your tired legs after a day of exploration. Hiring a car is also a popular mode of transport for those who want to explore the island without breaking a sweat. Corfu is a relatively small island and it’s possible to discover a lot of it within 1 or 2 days. For those looking for a direct route from A to B, there is a green bus designed for the local people to get to Corfu Town. The bus runs from San Stefanos and surrounding villages directly to Corfu Town, so no chance of popping on and off. It’s useful to know that Corfu Town has a little siesta in the afternoon so all of the shops close from 14:30 and reopen at 17:30, but on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays they do not reopen in the evening. There are other coach options that are designed for tourists and will allow more time in the designated destinations and more information about the areas you pass will be available.
