The Agios Georgios Argyradon Beach is a 200 meters long and 10 meters wide white stretch of sand located in the municipality of Korision, on the southwestern side of Corfu, and it manages to amass a large number of tourists due to its velvety sandy quality and to the facilities it is fitted with. Restaurants, taverns and coffee shops are spread along the beach, and the services they offer are complemented by the ones put forward by the nearby hotels and rooms and apartments for rent. The presence of lounge chairs and umbrellas goes without saying. Being a rather isolated beach, it is located some 30 kilometers southwards from Corfu Town, and it stands out as one of the most frequented beaches in the entire island of Corfu.
