Coral Bay Quick Update - April 2024
We aren't due for another progress report on the Coral Bay Strip until towards the end of the month. Yesterday however I was in the area so I sent the drone up the Strip for a sneaky peak. They have been making great progress since the last drone flight. And remember, lots of the restaurants are currently open and accessible from the rear.
Hard At It
In our last report we met Site Engineers for a guided tour. The day after that they began pouring concrete, so I posted a follow-up drone flight. Since then, they have been very busy.
If you are desperate to see the film we made with the drone, and can't wade through two pages of photos first, then check out our Coral Bay April Update film.
Not-So-Crazy Paving
If you recall, they are doing the renovation work in two stages. The more advanced stage you can see here is towards the main coast road. There are a variety of paving stones in evidence, presumably to distinguish between the road and pedestrian areas.
Bulldozer
Somebody appears to have been walking in the concrete before it set!
Seriani
Seriani is one of the many restaurants that is still open and accessible from the rear. I certainly recommend their Stifado. You can see where a load of paving stones have been piled up in the parking area, ready to be put in place.
Phase 2
While Phase 1 is in the pavement-laying stage, Phase 2 - towards the coast - is still in the concrete stage.

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.
