Cyprus Road Trip #2: Paphos - Coast to Coast
It's time for another road trip! This time we are going Coast to Coast, from Paphos, to Agios Georgios, and across the island to Latsi and the Baths of Aphrodite. We are also stopping at lots of fun locations on the way, so buckle your seatbelts and let's get started!
On The Way To Coral Bay
We start once again at The Mall, and head off to Coral Bay. I should point out that this blog is a summary of the eBook we have written. That contains nearly 150 pages and there is no way I am going to reproduce all of it here. The purpose of the eBook is so that you can download it from Amazon and keep it with you as you follow the route. You won't have to worry about losing your internet connection. The purpose of this blog is to show you where the eBook will take you. The book itself has plenty of maps, and photographs of relevant junctions etc, so you won't get lost.
Coral Bay
On this road trip we go from coast to coast, visiting beaches, villages and places of interest along the way. So naturally we go to Coral Bay.
Beside The Seaside
We also explore the coastline heading towards sea caves.
Shipwreck
Naturally enough, the wreck of the Edro III gets a mention.
Sea Caves
And we couldn't very well not show people the sea caves.

The Necropolis at Meletis Forest
If you drive to the Akamas along the coastal road, you will eventually come off the main road and onto a side road leading to the Akamas proper. Before you go past the Searays cafe bar, you will see a nondescript sign on your right, next to a layby.
Pano Arodes
Pano Arodes is one of the gateways to the Akamas. It is a charming village between Kathikas and Droushia. We will be featuring it in our next eBook, so recently visited it to do some research. Naturally enough, we took lots of pictures while we were there...

Paphos Life Road Trip #1
As summer approaches we thought we would put together some road trips suitable for all types of cars. No off-roading will be involved, and the emphasis will be on sight-seeing. This trip takes in over 10 villages, and covers a variety of landscapes, from Kathikas in the East to pano Panagia in the West.
Chrysochou Cemetery
If you drive along the B7 towards Polis, pay attention as you pass by Chrysochou. On your right, through the trees, you will be able to make out some strange stone shapes. One day recently, while we were preparing for our recent Chrysochou blog, we decided to investigate further...
Chrysochou
Chrysochou lies nestled between Goudi and Polis, on the North West Coast of Cyprus. From the B7, where you will most likely have seen it, it is notable for the well preserved mosque that dominates its skyline. But Chrysochou has other points of interest, and a few surprises should your curiosity entice you to explore, including a fully restored water mill!Related Pages

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.
