Village Facilities

What the village has to offer you.

Unlike other tourist villages (Sidari, Kavos, Benitses, Ipsos), the village of Ag. Stefanos Corfu Greece has been developed by the locals over a long period of 15 years (so far). This resulted in the village being spread over a wide area and not as a one road strip such as Sidari, Kavos, Benitses and Ipsos.

The village of Ag. Stefanos in Corfu, Greece is more of a friendly family resort catering for all and run by the locals who are not professional business men trying to extract your last Drachma.

This can be seen during the winter when the owners of these restaurants, bars etc. change into their working clothes and collect olives or become builders and fishermen.

Never the less the village has all the basic facilities that a visitor to this resort could possibly want.

Food, Cigarettes, Gifts for all.

Corfu offers a wide variety of gifts, below is what I think are good buy's and also make a good gift to a friend / loved one.

CLOTHES AND LACE: The pretty cheesecloth dresses are good value, as are the cotton T shirts, generally much cheaper than UK, and of good quality. The lace is all hand made, not cheap but very beautiful.

OLIVE WOOD: Everywhere you look on the island you will see olive trees growing. From this wonderful wood, craftsman fashion numerous household items and ornaments by hand. The wood is not vanished but oiled or polished to show off the unique grain. One such shop is on Paneliniou street (marked as a tourist shopping street), where the owner also works.

GOLD AND SILVER: The gold is generally of 14 or 18 carat, and will be weighted to find the price. A lot of the designs are unique, and also should you have your own idea, certain shops in town will make it. Silver has always been a good buy, and not limited to jewellery only, there are also silver dishes and photo frames.

FURS: Furs are comparatively inexpensive in Greece, and if you have ever thought of owning one, this would be a good time to buy. There is a selection of shops in Corfu town so don't buy from the first shop you find. If you do decide to buy a fur coat, the shop will usually have it delivered to England (saves extra baggage). There are also a good choice of leather jackets in the town, many with unusual designs.

EDIBLES: Of course you must take some olive oil home, also the Metaxa brandy and ouzo are a good buy. Also the nougat and the Greek (Turkish) delight.

If making a large purchase, normally a discount is offered if paying cash.

A fishing village!

The harbour is very big but due to the currents most of the bay has filled up with sand. The result is a maximum depth of around 2 meters.

This harbour is also used by all the local fishermen and hence is generally quite full.

Grid Location: B10 (5,0)
Facilities: Launch ramp, power facility, diesel, water.

Hope you won't need this information!

Corfu understandably has a large number of tourists and because of this some Medical Centre's have been set up catering basically for the tourist trade, the prices charged are more expensive than the local GP if contacted directly.

We have put forward below an English speaking Doctor and Dentist both of whose practises are in Corfu Town.

Ag. Stefanos welcomes you!
