I think it sails from Kassiopi but I set myself up to be corrected.

I thought the advertising said from the new S S Harbour!!
Perhaps someone on site can confirm or correct this -
Bubblehead / Holistica maybe?

Really no idea about the boat trip, however, on the way from Town Pizza at 1: 20 am, glanced at a poster briefly at S S Travel but didn't really absorb the info. Perhaps it would be a good to email SST to get the correct info.

Hi Tonycool!!!

Kip can never resist the invite to a cold Mythos, he loves the way they put the glasses in the cooler to become frosty cold, looks so inviting!!!

We went on the corfu town by boat with thomsons 2 years ago I would advise not to go with them.There were no reps on the trip and people had to stand on the coach journey back to San Stef because the drivers could not agree on their route.We were put on the boat and left to admire the scenery down the coast line but there was no commentry to tell us which places we were passing,Perhaps we should have known. I can't remember the cost but it was not a cheap trip. San Stef travel may well be better organised.

You travel to Kassiopi by Coach, which picks up at locations around SS and by Boat from there to Corfu Town. Watch this space for more details!!!

Heya TonyC

Kelimera Sas

So sorry the info was not more comprenhensive; I popped into SST quickly yesterday afternoon on my way to grap a Gyros at Tasty Corner and the lady minding the shop told me about the Boat trip. On our way home at 3 30 am this morning (Kip not blowing bubbles today so we had a relaxing night out.... ) we had a good look but couldn't find a poster with the details as you suggested and we thought we saw previously too - and honestly, we were sober!!. Wanted to find prices, times etc so these will follow when I find out.

Have a good day....yasas

Yes, follow up info directly from --the horses mouth as they say!! spoke to SST regarding this new trip this year. It leaves on a Monday at 8am, approx 40 mins coach ride to Kassiopi, then 90 mins boat ride to Corfu Town for a 4 hrs relaxer taking in a stop on the way back for swimming at some wonderous location. The cost is 25 Euros.

Hope this is helpful.

Have a nice day

Bevie from hot hot San Stef

You would have loved it last week on the trip to the Blue Lagoon Zoe . Really rough waves, sick bags being handed out and a lot of people looking ill. It put me off boat trips for a while. I could still feel the boat rocking the next day. It was quite amusing at times watching people trying to walk about the deck.

I will definitely stay on land. To much risk of sea sickness to even really give it a chance. :)

Ah! glad to help especially when it triggers such descripteves. Seems like the best place for you Guys is under water with Kipper where you can enjoy all you need, relaxation, excitement, feeling excellerated and refreshed, weightlesness, fun fun with the underwater world --and yes girls, a break from the nagging partners--sorry only joking, :) 8) LOL, but seriously "a breather from life" for every one!!!!!

Even beeing sick under water -- that is if you go mad on the mythos the night before---is cool, cos you just go right a head and be sick through your Regs, see, no fuss; cool, cool.....

and yes Don and Tonycool, you can write and talk under water too  ;D

Bye for now, have a nice day

Love all you Guys out there ( already and we have hardly met, thats what this forum does for you!! )

Poor Men!!! I'll give you Poor Men!!! We're only POOR MEN because all you women do is spend our hard earned cash!!!!

Obviously I'm excluded because Sandra pays for both meals and drinks !

MEANWHILE BACK ON SUBJECT..... how long does the Paleocastritsa boat trip take? If you go on that can you get up to Bella Vista?
Title: Re: Boat Trip to Corfu town
Post by: Jules on August 02, 2009, 10:17:12 PM
I wouldn't have thought you would get up to Bella Vista. Bella Vista is worth it though if you can. Lovely views. :)
Title: Re: Boat Trip to Corfu town
Post by: tonyco1 on August 03, 2009, 02:44:07 AM
No - you can't get up there unless you get a taxi!
I have done the Paleo Boat trip several times now!
I also prefer the place next to the Bella Vista - but can't remember the name of it - anyone know?
It has a pool and a nice shop, and is much bigger - nicer food as well!
