Beach location: This is an enormous and attractive beach associated with Agios Georgios resort in northern Corfu. It's not the easiest place to find, accessed from the main road beyond Sidari and Avliotes. Follow the signs for Afionas but don't detour into the village. Instead keep straight on and then look for the Agios Georgios signs on the roadside. Follow these down dusty, single-track roads until you arrive (you will probably get lost) at Agios Georgios beach (north Corfu). Maps are not helpful - just persevere!
