Agios (Saint) Stephanos (NW) Corfu

A small family resort and village in a cove, with a large sandy beach - it reminds me of a small Cornish seaside resort. This is the Agios Stefanos, (Avliotes) of the North West coast, not to be confused with one of the same name on the North East coast. Agios means Saint in Greek, therefore you may see both of them referred to as St Stefanos also. A good resort for those visitors who want everything on their doorstep - but nothing too touristy

A quiet family holiday with the beach as a focus.

The beach of Agios Stephanos is a wide sandy beach which ensures a most enjoyable beach holiday.

Sandy

Yes

Showers and toilets.

Ideal - although the cars do park close to the beach. Otherwise the large expanse of clean and and blue shallow water are ideal for children.

The parking is right on the beach - next to the board walks. I was worried about getting the car stuck, but the sand was surprisingly firm.

It is a clean - blue flag beach. There are no urchins.

Just the beach really. Nothing else of note.

Peroulathes with its famous cliffs and views are a must. Also a short dirve or good walk will take you to Arillas.

Difficult! The roads are narrow and it is off the beaten track a little - hence it seems to escape the crowds. Follow the map! From Sidari, drive to Peroulathes - stopping for the view of course. As you leave sunset beach, turn right and follow the signposts to Avliotes. This road will take you to St Stefanos.
