Agni Bay
Agni Bay is home to Taverna Agni - this website's creator. Agni means un-spoilt in Greek and this describes our bay perfectly. Situated on the North East Coast set amongst the olive groves growing either side of the bay.

Ipsos
Ipsos was known 10/15 years ago as a party resort, full of club 18-30's holidays. It is changing though. It is still a very lively resort - the discos and bars remain.

Kaminaki is a tiny coastal village tucked in amongst the olive groves. The bay is beautiful. Sparkling white pebbles with the turquoise water gently lapping at the shoreline.

Agios (Saint) Spiridon
Agios Spiridon has two beautiful bays overlooking the dramatic hills of Albania. As soon as you reach the bay at the bottom of the road the turquoise of the sea stuns you, this is truly a stunning bay with the flatness of the beach offset by the ruggedness of the rocks either side of the two beaches.
continued in: Agios (Saint) Spiridon > -
Agios (Saint) Stephanos (NE)
Agios Stephanos is a small fishing village, located on the North East coast of Corfu. (Rather confusing, as there is another Agios Stephanos located on the North West coast) This little fishing village has now become a very popular 'up market' resort with many stylish villas for rent. The bay can become busy during the day with visiting traffic. There...
continued in: Agios (Saint) Stephanos (NE) > -

Agios (Saint) Stephanos (NW)
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....
