It is well suited to those seeking a relaxing tranquil holiday and for couples seeking a romantic atmosphere with truly stunning scenery.

An ideal place to unwind though you can explore the surrounding bays via coastal walks on foot or by boat if you feel like a little more exertion!!!
Also known as Aghios Stefanos it was once a sleepy fishing village and has since become quite a secluded and prestigious resort favoured by many of the rich and famous. This is due to the fact that although it can be reached by road it is more accessible by boat. There is a small beach to the left of the harbour where you will find parasols and sunbeds available for hire or you can walk to the next bay of Kerassia which is only accessible via road from San Stephanos or else by boat or on foot. Here again you will find sunbeds available and a single family run taverna.

Here again you will find sunbeds available and a single family run taverna and excellent swimming.
Avlaki beach is also nearby with its watersports, 2 tavernas and dinghy sailing school and horse riding all just a short drive/walk away.
Kassiopi is still small yet a bustling resort with a strong emphasis on both families and couples. It has a pretty harbour from which boat trips and excursions can be taken surrounded by waterside cafes. A wide range of shops around the village square including 2 larger supermarkets, a chemist, butcher, bakery and laundry etc. Many varied restaurants Italian, Mexican, Chinese and of course excellent Greek tavernas to cater for every taste. Several bars and a of club available late evening should anyone feel the need for a little more life. 3 beaches with excellent watersports including windsurfing and a dive centre.
Car/Boat hire is recommended if you wish to explore more of the island though not a necessity. There are some lovely walks to be found exploring the surrounding bays and neighbouring villages.
Corfu Town is a must with its Italianate arcades, Venetian fortress and cobbled alleys it boasts everything from boutiques to traditional craft shops open late into the evening. Aside from shopping you can watch an afternoon of cricket sipping coffee from below the arches of the Liston Arcade. Not forgetting the Corfu Trail (see www.corfutrail.org) for those who like to see the island on foot or the monastery at Paleokastritska and many other attractions on the island.
The Corfu Trail
Walking – those who love walking will love Kalami as there are many paths that wind up through lush countryside, olive, lemon and orange trees, linking each bay along the coast treading in the footsteps of the Durrell brothers, Corfu at its best. There is also The Corfu Trail, a long-distance footpath which runs the length of the island, from its southernmost tip to its northernmost point fully waymarked in both directions. It meanders through all the island's rural municipalities and avoids heavily developed areas to the island's beauty spots, beaches, picturesque villages, monuments, monasteries and diverse landscapes. The official Corfu Trail Guide Book is available at various locations along the trail as well as several bookshops. You can find out more at their official website.
Full directions and an Information Pack would be provided upon receipt of the final balance of your holiday.
