Clare Davies:
We want to explore more of the south coast in October could one of you experts help with..............
How long does it take to drive to Kavos?

I think the best way is probably not to go along the west coast - but to cross over to Corfu Town and follow the better coast road (well almost coast road), down south to Moraitika (just before Messongi Beach) then it goes inland for a bit before turning left at a Big Junction & along the main road running in the centre of the "tail-end" of Corfu -
follow this all the way down to Kavos.
You need a good map and you should plan your Journey by noting the villages you pass through and driving
"Village to Village" as it's the easiest way to route plan.
You can buy a fantastic Map which is mentioned in other posts, hand drawn by a map maker and artist.
I bought two as they are really good, from a chap who went round Corfu with a Sat device and recorded accurately, every single road that was drivable.
He is now in England and I can supply the address and email if you wish - the only truely accurate map I have seen!
I guess you should allow 2 to 2 1/2 hours for a through Journey, but I would stop and check a few of the little real old Greek Tavernas on the way!!
Clare Davies:
Thanks for the advice, I was planning to drive via west coast and then hit the main road at Ag. Mattheos.
Your route looks a much better option, a clear path and more main road. I'm using a map I got from Spiro's at the quad hire.
I've had it for years, many folds and not so much detail.
We will get up early for that journey and the time you suggest to get there seems fine as long as I don't get lost, I've got lost before but some how always manage to get back on track......................
Can't wait to go now & thanks again

The west coast drive is nice and you can go through the Ropra Valley, but takes much longer, some dodgy roads as well!!
Lots of mini mountain roads!! Good driving the way I suggested!
Enjoy Kavos - (yuk) - great beach - but too much 18-30 madhouse for me!
Not as friendly as S S, well you wouldn't be either working with that lot!!!
