This month's picture · written by AI from the figures on this pageΟ Δήμος Νότιας Κέρκυρας είναι τόπος τουρισμού και εστίασης, με ζωντανή αγορά όπου ξεχωρίζουν ενοικιάσεις αυτοκινήτων, καταλύματα, σουβενίρ, εστιατόρια και καλλιέργειες. Πιο σπάνια βρίσκει κανείς κομμωτήρια, φροντιστήρια, καταστήματα ένδυσης και κρεοπωλεία ή μανάβικα, ενώ αξίζει μια πιο προσεκτική ματιά στα πρατήρια καυσίμων, τον πιο κινητικό κλάδο της περιοχής.
