St. George South - Corfu Magazine - Vol. 3, No. 3; March 2008
Set in the southwest of Corfu, Agios Georgios is blessed with one of the best beaches on the island. The golden sand stretches as far as the eye can see and for those who want to do more than laze in the sun, water-sports are available. There’s a good selection of tavernas and bars dotted along the road as well as supermarkets and gift shops. Agios Georgios is an ideal base for those who like walking and cycling. A short walk through the olive groves takes you to the quaint 10th century village of Argirades where life goes on as it has for years. Also north of St. George is Lake Korrision, a nature
reserve great for bird watching. Agios Georgios really does have something for everyone. Agios Georgios south has two long stretches of golden sand. One is backed by sandstone cliffs, the other with dunes. Some watersports are available on these beaches. It is perfect for families and couples looking to spend happy, lazy days in the sun on the sand.
The northern end is where bars / restaurants / shops sit side by side, a main sandy beach, a couple of small (rocky) beaches and the harbour can be found. Moving south 400-600 metres, things are much more spread out, with areas of open land between shops and restaurants - it is this area that contains the second beach, known as golden beach. Both beaches offer many of the usual "water sports", including Jet Ski's and padalos.
Saint George South has grown rapidly over the last few years, although it is still relatively small. It spans two bays with golden sandy beaches in each, with a rocky outcrop and the harbour in between. ST GEORGE SOUTH has the right recipe for a successful holiday and there is something for everyone. Sun, sea and an abundance of fine, golden sand are the lingering ingredients of this resort. Miles of golden sand in each bay affords excellent scope for exploring - safe beaches for families with toddlers as they dip very gently in to the sea.
