Good to know
Good to Know
- There are no shopping malls or department stores in Kavos — this is a small, seasonal party-resort village, and all retail is concentrated on the single main strip.
- Most shops close or scale down dramatically outside the summer season (roughly May–October), so anyone based here off-season will find very limited retail options.
- Shops on the strip are geared toward tourist essentials (sunscreen, snacks, beachwear, souvenirs) rather than everyday nomad needs — for wider retail (electronics, clothing chains, larger supermarkets) residents typically travel to Corfu Town, about 45km / roughly an hour's drive away.
- There is no Apple Store or certified Apple service point in Kavos itself — the nearest Apple-authorized repair/reseller is in Corfu Town, roughly 45-60 minutes away by road, so plan ahead if you need a device serviced.
- For buying electronics or accessories, Skroutz.gr is the go-to Greek price-comparison site and generally reliable for delivery across Corfu, including Kavos.
- Amazon and other international retailers do ship to Corfu, but during Kavos's low season (roughly November to March) delivery can be slower than in Athens or Corfu Town due to reduced local courier activity — order with extra buffer time if you need something for a specific date.
- Cash-on-delivery is common with Greek online orders and usually adds a small fee (a couple of euros) on top of the item price.

Online Shopping Reliability
Major Platforms
Skroutz.gr
- Relevance
- Best tool for comparing prices on electronics (including Apple gear) and arranging delivery anywhere in Greece, including Corfu
- Description
- Skroutz.gr is Greece's dominant price-comparison and e-commerce marketplace, connecting buyers to thousands of Greek online stores.
Amazon (Via Amazon.de/.com or Forwarding Services)
- Relevance
- Useful for items not readily available through Greek retailers; some sellers restrict shipping to Greece, so availability should be checked per item before ordering
- Description
- Amazon does not have a dedicated Greek storefront optimized like Skroutz, but ships many items to Greek addresses including Corfu; delivery timeframes and costs vary by item weight/dimensions and are shown at checkout.
Delivery Infrastructure
- Couriers
- The main national courier networks used for e-commerce deliveries in Greece are ACS, Geniki Tachydromiki, Speedex, and ELTA (the state postal service).
- Typical Process
- Couriers typically call ahead before delivery, and if you're unavailable, packages can usually be held at a local courier office for about two weeks before being returned.
- Kavos Specific Note
- Kavos is a seasonal resort town on Corfu's southern tip; courier offices and daily delivery frequency are concentrated in Corfu Town, so deliveries to Kavos (especially in the quieter off-season, roughly November–March) can take noticeably longer than in a major city, and cash-on-delivery fees (typically a few euros) are common.
