BLUE LAGOON
The north coast of the Akamas peninsula coastline of Cyprus is a snorkeller’s paradise. The Blue Lagoon in Paphos is a popular, large bay with an island in the middle. Here’s what we found.
APHRODITE WATERPARK
Paphos Aphrodite Waterpark is the BIGGEST WATERPARK in the Paphos region, a one-of-a-kind naturally landscaped aqua adventure centre.
Situated in Kato Paphos on the coastal road easily accessible by car or the local bus which drops off right on our doorstep!
LARA BEACH
When you stand on the shores of Lara Beach taking in the views under the generous summer sun of Cyprus, you will feel revitalized and recharged almost immediately. Because Lara Beach has a unique effect on her visitors. Granted, she is playing hard to get – it takes a four-wheel drive to reach her – but the effort is all worth it and here are the reasons why.
HORSE RIDING
Horse riding centres in Paphos (George’s Ranch – Coral Bay, Paddocks Equestrian Centre – Kissonerga, Santa Fe Ranch – Yeroskipou) are the best known centres and stables in Cyprus. In these centres you can experience exhilarating horse ridings that you will never forget.
LATCHI HARBOR
Latchi harbor is a sleepy port of Cyprus, where the fishermen still bring in the fresh catch of the morning and supply those who are lucky enough to have got up early that day.
PAPHOS ZOO
The project started with Mr Christos Christoforou’s love of Birds and Wildlife. The Pafos Zoo was originally going to be for Mr Christoforou’s private use to house his enormous private collection of Birds, but he decided to open the Zoo to the public, so that they may also enjoy the splendours of his private collection & it also being a unique Zoo in Cyprus. Mr Christoforou’s other aim was to educate the local community about the importance of caring & conserving all wildlife. The Zoo took 3 years to complete & it was finally open to the public in September 2003.
PAPHOS MOSAICS
Ancient temples, rock-cut tombs and Roman villas with elaborate mosaic floors all reflect the highly sophisticated societies which inhabited Paphos in the past. With a history dating back more than eight thousand years, the town offers a wealth of treasures to the visitor.
CORAL BAY
One of the best sandy beaches in the region, Coral Bay is located near Peyia and easily reached by car, motorbike, bicycle and bus. It offers water sports and sun bed and umbrella hire. There is accommodation nearby, while lifeguards are on duty with lifesaving equipment during the swimming season.
