Coral Bay Beach Tour
Coral Bay Beach is one of the Jewels in Paphos' Tourism Crown. It is the perfect place for a family to enjoy a day at the seaside. Numerous watersports are available, and facilities at either end ensure that everybody is properly catered for. In this tour we visit the beach twice. We start after a rainstorm, on the Eastern side, and finish on a sunny day, on the opposite side of the bay. Come and see what we saw along the way...
Coral Bay From Above
We begin our tour looking down at the beach, from a little-used carpark amongst some villas. You can walk down to the beach from here, but instead I am going to go round to the main carpark.
Lower Carpark
To get to Coral Bay Beach, you drive along Coral Bay Strip, go down the small hill then turn left into a big parking area. On the far side of this a bumpy track runs down to another, much smaller parking area. This is where I am now.
Refreshments
In this area you will find a kiosk serving food and drink, as well as toilets and showers.
Incidentally, if you want to visit Coral Bay Beach but don't have a car, you need to get the 615 bus that runs very frequently from Paphos Harbour to Coral Bay.
To The Sand
Let's go down to the beach itself now.
Standard Prices
The sunbeds in Cyprus normally cost the same: €2.50 for a bed and €2.50 for an umbrella. There are a couple of beaches that have areas with private sunbeds available for hire, but they are the exception, rather than the norm.

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.
