Polis Beaches Part 1
Ttakkas Bay Restaurant
After the dog beach, we come to Takas Bay. The restaurant here was also open. We have noticed that a lot of restaurants are closed on mondays, so bear that in mind if you are visiting then.
Nice Beach
Takas Bay Beach is not a blue flag beach, but it looks like they are headed in that direction. It has a lifeguard station, and plenty of deck chairs, and there are two blue flag beaches further along the bay. Note that there is plenty of space between the deckchairs.
Towards Akamas
There was a fair amount of parking available here, too.
Xistarokambos Beach
We now come to our first blue flag beach of the blog. The restaurant here is very popular, and there are also showers, toilets and changing rooms available. You get here, coming from Aphrodite's Baths, by turning just before Aphrodite Beach Hotel. If you follow the track there you come to a car park by the hotel. The track continues past that though, and winds down to another parking area by this restaurant and some changing rooms.
Take The Tour
Remember the virtual tour was made last year, before social distancing had been implemented. You can find more information on the beach here:

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.
