Gialia Beach
Gialia Beach is close to the village of Gialia, which lies on the North Coast of Paphos, between Polis and Pomos. It is quiet, though does have some facilities, including a resident Life Guard. We recently had a look around...
Meet The Beach

To get to the beach, take the coast road from Polis and head east. Just before you reach the village of Gialia, look out for this sign on your left. The turn is quite sharp so take care.
Peaceful

We visited the beach towards the end of September, in the middle of the week. Consequently, it was deserted. I would imagine that during peak season this can get quite crowded though.
Mod Cons

The sign we saw in the first picture mentioned toilets, changing facilities, sunbeds, turtle nesting area, a lifeguard and a shower. Here you can see the toilets. Though primitive they were very clean. And when I say primitive, I mean they were portaloos. I don't mean they were just a hole in the ground.
Changing Area

If you are shy you can get changed here. Myself I prefer hopping from foot to foot with a towel around my waist as I try to pant-up.
The Beach

And here's the beach itself. Ok, so it won't be used as a venue in the Pan-Cypriot Sandcastle Competition, but it is nice and clean. The sunbeds have been put to the rear of the beach, as you shall see.

Polis Beaches Part 3
In the final part of our look at the beaches along the north coast of Paphos, we travel from Pomos to Polis, finishing up with a slap-up meal at our favourite kebab joint. If you want quieter beaches in beautiful surroundings, then this area will not disappoint. We visited these beaches more times than was strictly necessary to make this blog, which shows that we have saved what we consider to be some of the best Paphos beaches to last.
The Pomos Coast
Pomos is quite a trip from Paphos, but it is most definitely worth it. We were up that way to visit some abandoned villages and overflowing reservoirs this week, but stopped to take in the coast along the way. The countryside up there is breathtaking, and well worth a visit. Here's a short selection of what to expect.Good Pages To Visit

eBookCyprus Road Trip 01: the Kathikas - Panagia Loop
Let me take you on a journey around the region of Paphos, Cyprus. Starting at Paphos itself, we travel to Akoursos, then Kathikas, Kritou Terra and Simou. We continue past Lasa and Kannaviou, before taking in the delights of Panagia. Getting a bit more adventurous, we visit the abandoned villages of Statos and Agios Fotios, before passing through Choulou, Letymbou and Polemi, and rejoining the main Paphos - Polis road.
The route is suitable for all types of vehicle, and requires no off-roading. The guide contains about 130 photographs including shots of all the road signs you need to pay attention to, as well as some of the highlights you may experience along the way.
There are also several maps which will help you keep your bearings.
You can do this journey in a day, or you can break it up into chunks. You can also do it in reverse, to get some completely different views. It is entirely up to you.
