Good to Know
- Mobile coverage in Kavos and Corfu is strong from all three major carriers (Cosmote, Vodafone, Nova), making e-SIM or local SIM a reliable option for connectivity.
- Cosmote offers the most reliable coverage on Greek islands including Corfu; Vodafone is a strong alternative; Nova is budget-friendly but weaker outside urban areas.
- e-SIMs are easier and faster for short-term stays than local SIM cards—no passport registration, instant activation, and competitive pricing (typically €3.74–€25+ depending on data allowance).
- 4G speeds in Greece average 25–55 Mbps, sufficient for video calls, navigation, and remote work; 5G is currently limited to Athens and Thessaloniki.
- Fair-use policies apply to many unlimited e-SIM plans—speeds may throttle after heavy usage; 10–20 GB plans offer better value than unlimited for typical nomad usage.
- Home broadband options in Kavos are likely limited; mobile hotspot via e-SIM or local SIM may be more practical and reliable than fixed-line for a nomad.
