General Info

Climate

The islands of the North Ionian Sea are somewhat isolated and the climate differs from the rest of Greece. There are no “meltemia”, the famous winds that blow in the Aegean Sea, during the summer months. The winds in Corfu are light and the climate is mild and sweet. Many tourists prefer this side of Greece, avoiding the strong winds of the Aegean.

During the winter months, southern winds, usually lasting for days, strike the island with an intensity that can reach up to 8 Beauforts. The strong winds rarely cut off access to the mainland, due to the small distance from the shores of Epirus. The island also experiences high humidity and heavy rain falls, during the witner months, which explain its rich vegetation.

Local Transportation

Buses

The island has a very good road infrastructure and an excellent public transportation system. There are two available local bus lines.
The first is the municipal line (blue buses) and runs between the capital city of Kerkyra and the suburbs of Afra, Agios Ioannis, Kanoni, Perama and Achillion.
The second is the KTEL line (green buses) and covers the entire island. With KTEL you can visit various towns and villages, like Lefkimi, Kavos, Karoussades, Agios Panteleimon, Agios Gordios, Glyfada, Vatos and many more.

KTEL: +30 26610 30627 and 26610 39985

Corfu Local (Blue) Buses

All these buses leave from San Rocco Square in Corfu Town. Tickets must be purchased before boarding the bus. They can be bought from the bus company kiosk in the square or from kiosks and village shops. (You are advised to buy a ticket for the return journey at the same time.)

Local buses are a cheap way to travel, but the bus timetables are a little difficult to find and often change without notice! The best way is to ask a 'local'. Often a 'Kafeneon' is opposite a bus stop, and doubles as the 'bus shelter'. Simply pop inside and ask when the next bus should arrive. Greeks are known for their hospitality and they will gladly help you.

Note: We have tried to make this list as up to date as possible but routes and timetables change from time to time. We cannot be held responsible if any of this information is innacurate. We strongly advise that you double check all times with your accommodation or in the resort itself.

Corfu Country and Long Distance (Green) Buses

All these services leave from the Bus Station which is close to the New Port in Corfu Town.

Local buses are a cheap way to travel, but the bus timetables are a little difficult to find and often change without notice! The best way is to ask a 'local'. Often a 'Kafeneon' is opposite a bus stop, and doubles as the 'bus shelter'. Simply pop inside and ask when the next bus should arrive. Greeks are known for their hospitality and they will gladly help you.

Note: We have tried to make this list as up to date as possible but routes and timetables change from time to time. We cannot be held responsible if any of this information is innacurate. We strongly advise that you double check all times with your accommodation or in the resort itself.

Taxi Service

You can also get around the island by taxi. There are many taxi piazzas, in various central points of the island, like in San Rocco square and on Theotokis Street. You can also call for a radio-taxi (call at 26610 33811).
The fares are fixed between the capital city and the most popular destinations, but you can also check before you get onboard. In the main piazzas you will also find a board with indicative fares for each destination. Finally, you can also hail a taxi, if you don’t happen to be near a piazza. They will stop provided that they have no other passenger onboard.

Horse Carriages

Corfu is one of the few places in Greece where you will actually see horse carriages. This is probably the most romantic way to tour around the capital city. You can find them in Spianada –the main square- and at the old port. The tour can last up to 40 minutes and the driver will take you around the main sights of the city.
For any additional information you can call at +30 26610 24162.

Rent a Car or a Motorbike

Kerkyra is a big island visited by thousands of tourists every year. It has many attractions, scattered around, ancient monuments, amazing beaches and an astonishing natural beauty all around. If you don’t travel there with you own car, you can rent one or a motorbike, from one of the numerous car rental agencies that can be found in all the major towns. Remember that during the months of May through September, Kerkyra is packed and you need to make a reservation well ahead. Finally, bear in mind that Easter is also a very busy period for the island, due to the religious and cultural festivities that take place.

The ground rules about renting a vehicle or a motorbike are as follows,
• You have to be 21 years old and you definitely need a valid driving license
• Insurance is optional. Make sure you check the condition of the car beforehand. If you sign for its mint condition, this is how you must return it, otherwise you will be charged with damages –unless you included full insurance in the original price.
• You need to return the car with as much gas as it had when it was delivered to youBe careful. No agency should withhold your driving license or ID card. These can only be photocopied, if necessary, and then delivered back to you. You should carry them at all times in case the police or any local authorities request them.

The road network of Corfu is pretty good; however, do not forget that it’s also an agricultural area. Tractors or other vehicles might appear out of nowhere and the same goes for animals and/or pedestrians. Do not violate the speed limits and do not park where not allowed. The municipal and the traffic police will most certainly write you a ticket. Bear in mind that parking is limited around the city and especially near the entrance of the old town –where absolutely no cars are allowed.

Same rules apply in case you are interested in renting a motorcycle or a scooter. Only in this case you need to be extra careful and always wear a helmet. Parking will certainly be easier!

Local Services

Banks & Atm's

You will find branches of all the major Greek banks on the island, like National Bank, Emporiki Bank, Piraeus Bank, Alpha Bank, Agricultural, Ioniki, and many more. They are all open daily, from Monday to Thursday, from 8am to 2.30pm and on Friday from 8am to 2pm.
No bank is open during the country’s national and religious holidays. You will find ATMs all over the capital city of Corfu, as well as in every town and village, where you can get cash 24/7.
Remember that in order to get money you need to have a card linked to the PLUS, Cirrus or Maestro networks. Check with your local bank for details.

Money Exchange

Banks exchange all major currencies and traveler’s cheques; the commission is always lower for cash. Post offices can also exchange cash, but not traveler’s cheques and usually charge lower commissions than banks.
Travel agencies and 5 star hotels exchange foreign currency and traveler’s cheques, but usually charge a higher commission. There are banknote exchange machines in most tourist areas.
There is also a dedicated exchange kiosk at the local airport, as well as at the Athens international airport El. Venizelos.

Post Office

The Greek post is called ELTA. Post boxes in Greece are YELLOW and there are separate boxes for international and domestic mail. RED Post Boxes are rarer and they are used for URGENT mail. REGISTERED mail is handled by an employee at the Post Office and you shouldn’t forget to get a receipt.

Police Station

Do not hesitate to call the Police in case of an accident or a criminal act. If you have a problem with your hotel you can contact the Tourism Police. There are several police stations around the island and you will see officers inspecting the streets at all hours.
