Ayia Napa Is Gearing Up!
Love Bridge
The Love Bridge itself was feeling a little neglected. I guess nobody had been getting married until recently.
Ammos tou Kambouri Beach
Just down the coast from the Love Bridge is this very pretty little beach. We did some snorkelling here as it was a nice spot.
Towards The Canyon
Beyond the beaches you come to Cape Greko. This is about as wild as it gets, in terms of countryside, in the East of the Island. It gives me hope for the development of the Akamas as a tourist attraction, because although there is plenty of access to this area, there are still parts where it is very remote. Walking across this area is incredibly tricky though. What this photo doesn't show is the amount of jagged rocks you had to navigate in order to get anywhere off the beaten track. It really was a maze in places. Having to lug assorted cameras about didn't help.
The Canyon
This was our destination. We wanted to go snorkelling here. Unfortunately, the sea was just too rough.
Bubbles
Imagine what the visibility would be like in that? On a calm day though, the area is very popular with divers and the more adventurous snorkeller.

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.
