Located in the island's capital, Corfu Town, the Port of Corfu is a major international seaport and the primary maritime gateway to the northern Ionian Sea. It is a bustling hub for a wide range of vessels, including international ferries from Italy, domestic ferries from the Greek mainland, and large cruise ships.

Getting to and from Corfu Port

By Taxi

The taxi rank is located outside the international ferry and cruise terminals. When large ships arrive, the area can become very congested, leading to queues.

A pre-booked transfer with Aegean Taxi is the most comfortable and stress-free way to start your holiday.

Your driver will meet you at a designated point, ready to take you directly to your accommodation in Paleokastritsa, Sidari, or anywhere on the island.

By Bus

The local Blue Bus service (Line 15) connects the New Port to San Rocco Square in the heart of Corfu Town, which is a great option for reaching the city center.

To travel to other resorts across the island, you will need to go to the separate long-distance Green Bus (KTEL) station.

Frequently asked questions about Corfu Port

How do I get from Corfu Port to my hotel?

The main options are the public bus to Corfu Town, renting a car, or taking a taxi. As Corfu is a large island with many resorts spread out, a pre-booked transfer is the most popular choice for a direct, door-to-door service to your accommodation.

Is it easy to get a taxi at Corfu Port?

Taxis are available at a rank outside the terminal, but the port is extremely busy with international ferry and cruise ship arrivals. When a large vessel docks, this can create very long queues for available taxis.

How much is a taxi from the port to Paleokastritsa?

A taxi from the port to the popular resort of Paleokastritsa typically costs between €30 and €40, with the fare depending on traffic. To secure a set price before you travel, a pre-booked transfer with a service like Aegean Taxi offers a fixed, all-inclusive fare.

Should I pre-book my Corfu port transfer?

Yes, pre-booking is highly recommended for Corfu. It allows you to bypass the long taxi queues, provides a fixed price for your journey, and guarantees a vehicle will be waiting. A service like Aegean Taxi will also track your ferry's arrival for delays.
