Blue vs Green buses (what’s the difference?)
- Blue Buses (City) = Corfu Town + suburbs (short hops, airport/port link).
- Green Buses (Intercity) = around-the-island travel to resorts/villages.
If you’re travelling between resorts (Sidari, Kavos, Paleokastritsa etc.) you’ll usually use the Green buses — but to move around town or connect airport/port, Blue buses are often the one.
Line 15 (must-know): Airport ↔ Town ↔ New Port + Green Bus Station
The official city bus operator confirms Line 15 connects the New Port with the Airport, and passes through San Rocco Square (the city hub), also linking with the Intercity (Green) Bus Station.
