Hi Northern Dave, our shop is in San Stef, so I'll try and help.
Sunset is currently approx 9ish.
For tavernas that have sunset views, you're spoilt for choice. All along the road to the port, the tavernas have fantastic sea and sunset views.
Along this road you have, Waves (on the beach), Beachcombers (veranda overlooking the beach), Mistral (on the beach), Manthos (overlooking the beach) and Fantasea, on other side of the road, but fab views all across the bay.
For car hire you can go to San Stef rent a car (also known as corfuexplore), dimitri and manos, or tsaros. All have nice new vehicles. There are also 2 scooter/quad hire places, Spiros rent a bike, and Pegasus Bikes.
We have a good selection of bars. If you like music entertainment, head to the main road towards Avliotes. If you prefer it quiet, head to Kamini on the way to the port, or Aquarius by the Athens hotel.
Hope you enjoy it, if you're around and want any more advice pop in and say Hi....we're the ceramics shop on the road to Avliotes.
