Agios Georgios in Argyrades is about 33 km from Corfu town.
It is also known as Agios Georgios of the south to stand out from the homonymous location in the northwest of the island.
It is not a traditional village with permanent residents, but the sandy beach of the large traditional village of southern Corfu called Argyrades. Argyrades is one of those non-tourist villages of the Corfiot countryside where time passes slowly and daily life remains the same for decades.
About three decades ago the beach had nothing but sea and sand and hardly anyone lived here.
Visitors came from other resorts only to enjoy their swim in the clear waters of the wild and pristine beach at that time and to leave again. There were 2-3 houses belonging to residents of Argyrades and 2 or 3 restaurants all and all, the beach was without sunbeds and other amenities.
