Paphos Region Holidays
;img.crop(width:658%2Cheight:370))
Holidays to the Paphos region involve Blue Flag beaches, forests filled with cypress trees, and seafood dinners at harbour-front tavernas.
The west coast of Cyprus
The Paphos region of Cyprus’ west coast runs from Polis, on the island’s north-western tip, down to the city of Limassol, in the south. Most people come here for the beaches, and once you see them you’ll understand why. Blue Flag sands are flanked by limestone cliffs and accessorised by tilting palm trees.
A tale of 2 cities
The lively holiday resorts of Paphos and Limassol receive the lion’s share of the visitors. At first glance, you’ll notice karaoke bars, Irish pubs, and restaurants that serve Sunday roast and mousakka in equal portions. But look a bit closer and you’ll see the Cypriot charm that hasn’t been lost with the arrival of the tourists. The old part of Paphos showcases yesteryear Greece with its temples, churches and forts, while Limassol has an atmospheric old town.
Traditional Cyprus
Away from the coast, the Paphos region showcases a sleepy Mediterranean existence. Peaceful village squares dominate tiny villages like Pomos and Latchi, and the countryside is characterised by pine-covered hills and olive groves that stretch out for miles.
