Rent a car to make tour around the island
From central Corfu there are buses to take you to different destinations on the island and they are reasonably reliable. The long distance buses leave from the bus station which is close to the New Port in Corfu Town and the local bus station is on Pleteia San Rocco. The green buses are the long distance ones and the blue buses are local. If you do not like the buses there is always the possibility of hiring a car or a motorcycle to take you around the island’s lovely and attractive beaches.
