Corfu at 1:70,000 on a deceptively simple, hand-drawn map from the locally based cartographer S. Jaskulowski which became an unexpected bestseller in our London shop thanks to extensive tourist information provided on it.

On one side is the main map of the island with colouring roughly indicating its topography. Place names are shown in both Greek and Latin alphabets. Surfaced roads are graded into five types, with additional marking for tracks requiring 4WD. No driving distances are shown on the roads but the map indicates which 42 locations are included in the accompanying distance table. Beaches are highlighted and listed in an index also placed next to the map. The map has no geographical coordinates.

On the reverse are various panels with more information:

An enlargement of the island’s north-eastern tip with Mount Krassato showing hiking paths, accompanied by advice to walkers and 4WD drivers on the hazards of the area.

A map of the area between Corfu Town and the island’s airport, indicating one way streets, routes north and south avoiding the centre, petrol stations, car parks and taxi ranks, and various facilities such as the British Surgery.

A street plan of the Old Town and the adjoining district around the San Rocco Square annotated with various services and places of interest, consulates, etc.

A map showing the island’s division into telephone exchange areas.

All the text is in English only. The map was first published in 1997 and its current edition was updated in 2011.
